Installation guide - Replacing a thumbstick or joystick
General guidance for this part type - always follow your device manual- Tri-wing or Phillips screwdriver
- Plastic spudger
- Soldering iron and desoldering wick, for soldered joysticks only
- Hall effect joysticks can need calibration on first use; do this before closing if the controller allows it.
- 1Thumbstick caps only. Pull the old cap straight up firmly, line up the new cap with the stick's shaft and press it straight down until it is fully seated. You can stop here.
- 2Open the controller. For a full joystick, switch the controller off, remove its screws and release the clips along the grips. Disconnect the battery if it has a plug.
- 3Check how the joystick connects. Joy-Con style joysticks plug in with a ribbon and a small lock. PlayStation and Xbox joysticks are soldered to the board and need desoldering.
- 4Fit the new joystick. Seat the ribbon fully and close its lock, or solder each pin cleanly with no bridges between pins.
- 5Test and calibrate. Reassemble, then run the stick calibration in your console's settings and check for drift before regular play.
This is general guidance for the part type, not a model-specific procedure. If the part does not fit without force, stop and recheck compatibility.
