为什么手柄方向摇杆是好的，回弹也正常，但是，游戏中的人物移动方向会朝一个方向卡住我朝上方移动，但是我想要角色向其它方向移动时，你的角色却朝着上方一直走，停也停不下来，不管你如何移动你的方向摇杆

Xbox 360 Wireless Controller: How to resolder power and ground

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 02:59:01 -0700

Hello and thank you in advance. So the springs for battery pack have completly been stripped(i think). For some reason this control doesnt let me connect a usb cable so i dont have to use batterys. Is there a way for me to connect it directly so i dont have to use batterys maybe from one of these pins on top or from the middle maybe? Not sure what else i can do at this point. I really appreciate it!

Xbox One Wireless Controller Model 1537: Controller won't turn on with batteries.

Sun, 21 Jun 2026 14:07:47 -0700

Hi, I have recently taken my Xbox One Controller apart to replace the ABXY rubber mat and when I put it back together it won't turn on. I can hold the home button down and it'll turn on but once I release the button it will turn off. Also, I can plug the USB cable from the console into the controller and it works perfectly. If anyone has any answers to why I won't work properly with batteries I would be grateful.

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: Power Issues overheating, and coil whine

Sun, 14 Jun 2026 22:04:57 -0700

I did a stick swap recently and now the controller has an awful whine sound near the xbox button, and the xbox buttons light is extremely dim. When in wireless mode, if it decides to work, there is no power light and the vibration motors don't work. Also the D-pad gets hot after a couple of minutes. My best guess is that because that is where the processor is it could be overheating. It seems like overall some weird stuff is going on with power delivery but I can not seem to figure out what I did to cause this.

Would love some feedback and help.

Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller Series 2: Xbox Series X Gulikit TMR Joystick compatibility with Elite controller

Thu, 11 Jun 2026 01:56:34 -0700

This question is regarding the warning about compatibility of the Gulikit TMR Joystick with the Xbox Elite series controllers. There is a warning stating "Not recommended for Xbox Elite or Xbox One controllers due to unavailable software for joystick calibration." This doesn't make any sense because the Elite controllers actually use the Xbox Accessories app that has built in joystick calibration software. The very same software I see being used to calibrate the joysticks for the regular Xbox non-Elite version controllers.

I'm assuming the actual issue of compatibility is the different style of stem that has a thread to screw the Elite series thumbstick cover on. If that is the case, then my second question is if it is possible to replace the stem of the Gulikit thumbstick with the stems from Elite thumbsticks or not? I would really like to be able to replace the thumbsticks with TMR type if possible. The product page states that lack of calibration software is the issue, but I believe that is incorrect and the real problem is the stem difference. I would appreciate any feedback from anyone that has attempted this or knows enough about the TMR joysticks to know if they can be modified to fit the Elite 2. Thanks.

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: Possible to replace stock joystick with Elite ones?

Thu, 04 Jun 2026 06:57:07 -0700

I noticed that the Series and Elite controllers seems to have similar joystick solder pad locations...

I would really like the tension adjustments available in the Elite controller but don't want to buy another since I already own 3 controllers. Would it be possible to swap the Elite joysticks onto the Series controller if the position of the solder pads are the same? It doesn't matter if it won't fit inside the casing, I can simply cut part of the casing to make the tension adjustment joysticks fit, but the main question is whether the joystick are interchangeable. It's hard to tell the exact location in only the pictures and I don't know whether the wipers are identical.

Can anyone who happens to have both the Series and Elite controller or know about the joysticks tell me whether they are interchangeable? I know it's a pretty crazy mod, but it sounds pretty plausible to me.

Thanks in advance!

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: hi can anybody help?

Wed, 13 May 2026 10:07:21 -0700

I bought this used Xbox controller, and I think it has stick drift. Does anyone know if it could just be a simple software issue, or will I have to replace the whole joystick?

Right joy stick gets stuck rising from 20% to 70% up, then when you use the stick it resets and rises again. I would send a video but I don’t know how.

Xbox One Wireless Controller Model 1708: How to remove Broken headphone piece out of controller

Fri, 01 May 2026 08:25:44 -0700

So I was using a pair of gaming headphones and my arm got caught in the wire and pulled away and broke the end of the cable in the controller. So I spent $30 on the gripstick to remove it, but all it did was push it in further. Please help. Are there possible refunds for the GripStick? Also, it wasn’t just the tip that broke off. It was a decent chunk of the headphone jack that is now lodged in even more thanks to the GripStick.

Xbox One Controller: Joysticks jumps around after replacements

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 12:18:04 -0700

I've replaced joysticks on two controllers now and ran into the same issue both times.

Simply put, the joysticks wobble around from one direction to the other constantly, and one stick won't work aside from the LS click. All solder connections are working(checked continuity), no burnt off pads and no bridges as far as I can see.

In the first controller, i swapped one stick and it caused this on both. On the new one. I swapped both and both are affected, but one stick doesn't work at all.

LS is a third party replacement stick and doesn't react to movement. Jumps from left up to right down.

RS is a harvested stick from a broken controller and reacts to movement, but jumps from left to right.

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: My controller is recognized in windows but the led doesnt turn on.

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 14:02:50 -0700

My Xbox controller, which I was installing TMR sticks as soon as I finished installing the sticks, the controller gets connected, and Windows recognizes it as wireless_device, but it doesn't work at all. I installed the right stick first. I tested it and calibrated, and it worked fine, but as soon as I finished the left stick, the controller got recognized, but the LED indicator didn't turn on, and there was no input. The traces were all perfect, and no missing components. Is it the TMR's fault?. I will try desoldering it later, but I want answers, please!!!. thanks.

Update: At a certain point when I barely connect the two boards together it shows the led and if I kinda move even so slightly it stops. And I hear this buzzing noise very low from the controller
