Power A Xbox Controller Left Stick Button Stuck Down.

YesSir2 · Dec 20, 2020

Recently, I've noticed that my Power A wired Xbox controller kept on pressing down on the left stick without me even having the need or want to. This would be apparent when I go on to Modern Warfare and just move up. The menu for the XP Tokens opens up
and I had yet to press down. I broke down the controller to see that the button on the left that performs this task is pushed down lower than the one on the right. Is this fixable in any way or am I doomed for eternity and will never move in a game without
pulling up a menu or running?

Power A controllers are...not robust. Theres nothing you can do but buy a new one

i have always insisted that damage to the left stick is caused by pressing forwared and clicking down to run in games, it causes to much undue stress to the component, this is why i have invested in a power a controller with the 2 rear button, one is jump and the other is run and have not had an issue with the sticks again.

I wish there was a control scheme that eliminated any functions being on either the left or right sticks because xbox controller sticks aren't very durable. I've had to replace controllers in the past because of this. I wish aim was on the left trigger
and sprint could be double mapped on the B button where you sprint while holding B down.

i have done the testing and every button works perfectly fine even my right stick itself it just for some reason is stuck up like it can go left and right but not down and it stays up ; it drifted up before but i was able to stabilize it atleast but now it’s as the up drift over powers my pull down causing it to not work at all
