Hello everyone I have had one successful attempt at repairing the joystick on my joy-con but after replacing a joystick on a different joy-con i couldn’t get it to calibrate just right and the result was a slightly worse drift than before I started. I ordered a new joystick from ifixit this time rather than amazon. I just did the replacement and I’m having the same issue, when i try and calibrate after the repair it wont calibrate perfectly and there is a little drift. The first time it was a drift down and the second time it drifts up. I’m not sure what to do now has anybody else had this problem? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for sharing this awesome guide! The first Joy-Con repair went great but i just tried repairing a second Joy-Con and after calibrating it’s drifting really bad. The replacement joystick I used was from Amazon and only $6 so I’m assuming that’s why it didn’t work. I just ordered a new replacement joystick from iFixit so hopefully that one is better quality and works. Thanks again!

Thank you for the helpful guide! Is there a guide for the right Joy Con available anywhere?
