Xbox one controller scrolling to the right

StallingAlloy89 · Apr 30, 2018

My Xbox one controller keeps scrolling to the right. But it only does it with one controller. If I start the system with controller A it works perfectly fine. But once I turn controller B on it goes constantly to the right. How can I fix this?

My second controller for Xbox one and the analogue stick on the left keeps scrolling through options or makes character wonder. What to do for repair how much or if I buy a new controller will there be improved so you don't get this prob anymore. It has
to be a common problem right?

Hi

Chances are you will need to purchase a new controller to resolve this.

I just turned on my Xbox One X today and now my dashboard just keeps scrolling to the right. I have a elite controller and two brand new controllers. They all are doing the same thing even after following the three methods listed and cleaning the RB button.
Even just turning on the Xbox itself, it'll automatically just scroll to the right with no controllers turned on. During in game it does not happen only on the dashboard. Please help and fix this issue.

yeah it scroll down to the bottem really fast as if im moving the stick down but in reality i could be moving it up but it will act as if theres a second controller scrolling down even though i only have one. in all honesty it doesnt make sense for the
controller to be broke sense i just got it and the only thing thats not working right is the xbox scrolling down. ( sorry for bad spelling)

Have you found a fix for this? Im having the same issue. My dashboard scrolls right and will not allow me to move left, up or down. Its not my controller, ive tried 4 different controllers. But the problem still exists. I even installed the xbox one remote
to my phone and it still scrolled to the right and will not allow any other movements. Thats a sure thing that its not the controller. I have factory reset it keeping games and apps, and factory reset erasing everything but no luck.

Hiya!

Paul from the Xbox Forums Team here to assist with the issue, it looks like your controller is currently having an issue with the thumbstick drifting. I was able to find an article that should help you

troubleshoot the controller. I hope this information helps, please let us know how it goes.
