    Hi, my name is Tadeu, I'm an independent consultant and a Microsoft Xbox user just like you.

    I'm here to help.

    I hope everything is going well and thank you for reaching out.

    This support is intended to answer questions about the use and configuration of devices.

    I'm sorry you're experiencing this issue with your Xbox controller.

    If the trigger on your Xbox controller feels like it's being pressed when you're not touching it, it could be due to dirt, dust, or a faulty trigger mechanism.

    First, try cleaning the trigger area with compressed air and a damp cloth to remove any debris from the trigger. You can also try updating your controller's firmware. If the issue persists, you may need to send your controller in for repair or consider replacing it.

    Update your controller's firmware to the latest version.

    You can often update your controller's firmware from your Xbox console or on a PC using the Xbox Accessories app.

    Check for updates to your controller. Look for firmware updates in your Xbox console's settings or in the Xbox Accessories app on your PC.

    Please note that this is a public forum only. I will respond as soon as possible, and I apologize in advance for any delay in responding. I'm just a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others. I am not a Microsoft employee.

    Best regards.

    Xbox controller left trigger sticks

    My left controller trigger stuck more "logically" than physically. The trigger appeared ok but when you tried to do anything it was like it was stuck down. Had to take it back.

    And yes that was a Day One Controller.
