  1. left joystick help...work in game but not on menu!


    HELP!!!!!!!!!! Been having a google all morning hoping to fix this issue for my son, to no avail so would LOVE it if anone could help please!!!

    Having an issue with left joystick on wireless xbox one controller. If in game it works absolutely fine, can move right and left with the left joytick, but unable to scroll left in menus etc..... limiting the settings i can access etc... on the xbox menu.....
    able to move right with left joystick in main menus and up and down, but cannot movel left!

    Really hoping this is something straightforward to fix

    (as a discalimer, this is a wireless controller, the one that comes with the actual xbox one console, a rechargeable battery unit is used for power)

    Thanks guys!!!

    a desperate mum in need of technical advice!!!!!!

    :)

    hi there, many thanks for your response.

    I am now stuck on the white reset screen as shown in the photo in my previous post. if i try to move left to select engliush on the menu, it flicks straight back to bottom right of screen, therefore i am unable to even set the xbox up!! have tried connecting
    controller via lead but issue remains.

    "Have read online about connecting controller to console via usb and updating controller software, issue is, i am unable to access the menu for the settings!!! "

    When you try to Update xbox wireless controller does the Dpad allow navigation Left and Right,
    Up and Down?

    Directional pad (D-pad) (8): This is a raised plus sign-shaped toggle between the left and right sticks. It moves the focus up, down, right, and left in the user interface. Used to interact with games, apps, and the Xbox One interface.

    Try turning the console off, connect the controller via uSB plug/play cable and then turn the console back on.

    If you get a message to update the controller, allow it to update.

    Otherwise follow the steps in the link above to update controller.

    Wireless controller solution has further steps to assist you.
