    elite series 2 controller - slightly pressing left stick activates the right trigger


    while this is a rare issue, it is not unique to me.

    moving the left stick causes the right trigger to fire. i have examined this closely and found that if i slightly depress the left trigger (just lay my thumb on it a tad heavy), the right trigger activates. this is soconsistent. within the xbox accessories app i can cause the right trigger to fire 100% of the time by simply, slightly pressing down on the left stick.



    the right stick does not cause any similar issues.

    there are NO controller profiles in use.

    the controller is plugged in (so not a low battery issue as mentioned in another post).

    it is game/app independent; this behavior spans all games/apps i've tried.



    this controller has been fixed under warranty several times for different issues (mainly left joystick drift), for which i am grateful, but it is no longer under warranty and the cost to fix is prohibitive.



    i suspect there is an internal component that is slightly loose, and pressing the left stick is flexing the board, or slightly nudging some other part. i will open this up and take a look but wondering if anyone else has seen and maybe fixed this issue? or can recommend any specifics on what i can look for if i open it up?



    thanks for reading and for any help!

    Xbox Adaptive Controller profile help

    Hi Beau,

    I don't think it's possible at this moment to map the right or left sticks to assign them to specific buttons. What you can do is map clicking in the right stick into press Right Trigger. But the only customization with the sticks are swapping the left and the right, or inverting the Y axis.

    I don't personally own the adaptive controller, but trying these settings with the Elite Series 2 controller does not allow me to do so. If there are any more questions, please let me know.

    Elite series 2

    Hey I have got an Elite Series 2 controller the day it was released and it's a really good controller in my opinion. The only thing that I have a problem with is the bumpers LB and RB. They move twice when pressed instead of once like it should. I try moving
    tabs on Xbox Home by pressing the bumpers and it goes to far right or left kind of annoying at times.

    Other than that its a good controller the trigger stops are nice as well and the paddles are smaller than the Previous Elite Controller.

    Xbox One Elite Controller Issue

    get off of the aggressive setting destiny is not compatible with it

    i have a elite controller tried the same setting and destiny doesnt like it one bit

    i would recommend the standard setting here is how you do that and make a custom key map for destiny thats bullet proof.

    1. go back to regular analog stick control like i said the aggressive doesnt work

    2. Attach 2 only paddles one on the left and one on the right these will become your lock on and fire.

    3. flip the switch on the right trigger and the left trigger this will prevent long travel and help with the paddles to respond faster via firmware update

    ok are you ready to customize here is how to do it

    save a new customization call it destiny

    go to button mapping press and hold the right paddle until the icon on the screen changes then press the right trigger you now have set fire

    while in button mapping press and hold the left paddle until the same icon comes up and press the left trigger.

    now save the option into slot 2 or 1 your choice.

    now remove the stock analog sticks and go for the medium ones not the tall ones

    now your controller is ready to rock destiny style

    and it works amazing with this configuration i can run across the map target head shots and keep running with flippers totally amazing

    Elite Contoller left stick is also activating right trigger?

    maybe someone remapped the button on your controller where the left thumb stick would activate trigger. Try resettinb the elite controller to default. If that doesn’t solve the issue then you would nees to get the controller replaces (if its in warranty)
    or purchase a new controller
