If you've stumbled upon this guide, odds are that your Nintendo Switch Pro controller is acting a bit strange. Maybe it's causing your character to move in a completely different direction from what you wanted. Maybe your character is moving on its own without you even touching the controller! If so, you are experiencing something video game enthusiasts refer to as "joystick drift," which is usually a result of dirt and debris that gets trapped within the joystick.
It's difficult to enjoy a video game when your controller is working against you. You may be tempted to throw away the controller and buy a new one, but a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller has an MSRP of nearly $70.00!
Fortunately, there is a relatively easy fix for joystick drift. The solution involves taking apart the controller to clean the inside of the joysticks. This guide will show you how to do this safely and quickly.

After following these steps, your controller will be much cleaner now than it was before. Your controller should now be drift-free and function as well as any other $70.00 controller!
If you are still experiencing drift, then there is a physical defect with the joystick. In this case, you can opt to replace the joystick itself. You can find replacement parts online, but you will probably need to learn how to solder in order to install the replacement joystick.

Excellent. Really clear guide. Thank you so much
Worked like a charm! Thank you!
My controller has been having this issue, I've been opening it up and dusting the stick, but that only temporarily fixes this issue. I am considering replacing the stick module, although I am a bit worried that something else is causing drift. Its possible that the shell or upper stick part has worn out or has some sort of opening which is allowing dust and other particles to get into the stick. Any advice?
This is the first thing I have used my iFixit kit to try and fix and it worked perfectly. Thanks for a very helpful and clear to follow guide.
