    Elite Series 2 issue with left thumbstick


    I have an issue with the left thumb stick on my Elite Series 2. The controller is 5 months old but the problem is new.

    If I press up on the left thumb stick too fast, it does not register. It might register after 3 or 4 seconds of holding it in the up position, or never. If I press up slowly, it registers without any issue. I first noticed this problem when playing games
    and couldn’t make sense of it, but after testing it in the Accesories’s app test mode, I can clearly see there’s an issue with it and can replicate it every time. Also, it’s only with the up position, left right bottom works ok.

    Also, if I remove the thumb part and only use very small thing (don’t know how to call these parts...) to press up, there is no issue. Which seems very weird.

    Any idea how to fix this?

    :)

    Each Elite controller series 2 comes with 1 set of paddles. You can order replacement paddles, thumbsticks etc.

    Series 1 paddles, thumbsticks is not compatible with series 2.

    Left Thumbstick not registering on Xbox Elite Series 2

    Hello PepeMz, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

    These glitches can be a little frustrating

    First connect the controller to your Xbox console or PC and check if firmware updates are available. If an update is available, follow the instructions to update the controller firmware. Firmware updates can fix compatibility issues and improve controller performance.

    Then clean the joystick Sometimes the buildup of dirt, dust, or debris can affect the performance of the joystick. Use compressed air or a cotton swab lightly moistened with ********* alcohol to gently clean around the joystick and remove any dirt or debris that may be present.

    Finally, calibrate the controller, try calibrating the controller in Xbox settings. Go to Settings > Devices and accessories > Your controller > Configure > Calibrate. Follow the on-screen instructions to calibrate the controller joysticks.
    Calibration can help correct problems with incorrect response or lack of registration.

    Best regards.

    Elite series 2 left thumbstick delay/drift

    Seeing how your controller is out of warranty you could try searching online (Youtube) for a DIY fix otherwise, you can send it to Microsoft and they'll replace JUST the controller for $135 CDN. It's either that or pay full price for a entire new set (case
    etc).
