How to Test Stick Drift on Your Controller on Xbox Series X (Settings Tutorial)
44Stick drift is an issue where a joystick registers input in a particular direction without being intentionally moved. It can make controlling games less precise and more frustrating. If you suspect stick drift on your Xbox Series X controller, here are some steps to test and address the issue:
Visual Inspection:
Examine the thumbsticks for any visible damage, debris, or wear.
Ensure there’s no liquid spill or excessive force applied to the sticks.
Test Using Xbox Settings:
On your Xbox Series X, go to Settings - Devices & connections - Accessories.
Select your controller and check if the thumbsticks show any unintended movement.
Calibrate the controller if needed.
Use Gamepad Tester:
Visit the Gamepad Tester website on a PC or phone.
Connect your controller and observe the thumbstick behavior.
Look for any drifting movement when the sticks are at rest.
Deadzone Adjustment:
Some games allow adjusting the deadzone (the area where minimal stick movement doesn’t register).
Experiment with deadzone settings to minimize stick drift.
Physical Cleaning:
If you’re comfortable, disassemble the controller.
Clean the analog stick modules using isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab.
Be cautious to avoid voiding the warranty.
