Controller drifting to the left.

    Sucks.
    Controller is brand new from power city. Probably only about 6 weeks old. It's starting to drift for the left. I tried one or two solutions on YouTube (press the analog stick in and move etc) but nothing.

    Anyone know of any nice tricks to fix it?
    Or should I just give up and go down to power city :p

    Go back to Power City ;)

    Even if you fix it now temporarily, not worth it.

    Cheers.
    Just checked and it's only 8 weeks old. Got it delivered to the house. Sucks they don't have any more in stock.

    Boo. Boo I say :pac:

    Just an update for those who might have the same issue.
    I used a can of compressed air that I got for 1.50 in Dealz (picture attached) and it seems to have fixed it. Hope I'm not counting my chickens.

    I'm still gonna bring back mine as it's only been 8 weeks but this might help those who's controller is well out of warranty.

    I used a can of compressed air that I got for 1.50 in Dealz and it seems to have fixed it. Hope I'm not counting my chickens. I sprayed the air into the stick while holding it at different angles.

    I'm still gonna bring it back as mine is only 8 weeks but this fix might help for those who's controller is well out of warrenty.

    Black.
    Bring it back and if they have the berry blue one, take it. It's beautiful.
