Correct... dirt doesn't cause stick drift, it only causes sticky thumbsticks - the only real way to fix is replace the thumbs tick module with new solder

Moral of the story not all companies follow the rules but big companies like Sony and Microsoft arent gonna go bankrupt to give yall hall effect.

Only replacing potentiometers can fix drifting issue.

This reminds me of my job when I used to fix Nintendo Switch Joycon drifts lol. That was fun but SUPER low pay.

I have a stupid series s controller and it got hardcore drift in less than 2 months of usage. barely did anything too it. and ive tried isopropyl, blowing in the corners, opening it up and cleaning it like this video, etc. and it just won't read when I go up on the left analog stick. unless I press in. so I cant play any game that doesn't have sprint
