Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.
There's no need to buy an expensive new joycon when Replacement Joy-con analog joysticks can fix worn, out-of-control, unresponsive, and drifting analog joysticks.
Upgrade the screwdriver tips to S2 tool steel, which is stronger than any other screwdriver on the market. Trust me, you don't want to fail in a repair because the screwdriver head is worn out!
Upgraded Alloy Slider Locks - The original plastic slider lock, which is used to secure the connection between the Joy-Con and the Switch host, will become inoperable over time. As a result, we upgraded the material to Alloy on one pair (Left).
Screwdriver of the Correct Size - Y1. 5 and +1. The 1 can be fully fitted with a 5 screwdriver. Switch has 5 screws, but some screwdrivers aren't up to the task. As a result, they replace them with two of the same size.
Joy-Con Opener Complete Repair Kit A suitable tweezers is also used to assist with the Joystic cable's insertion into the socket. 4 Y1 additional Original screws are protected by 5 screws, which prevents them from being damaged or lost. Make sure you can fix the Joy-con with the help of these two video guides.

Questions & Answers

Is there any way to tell if this solves the drift issue? After a few months, do they begin to drift again?

Unfortunately, after three months, mine began to drift again. I'll keep the tools and replace them with better ones when the time comes.

Have any of these been tried? Do they work after 2 weeks, as opposed to my other pair from a different brand?

Mine has been working flawlessly for three weeks and is still going strong; I'm hoping they will outlast the ones that came with the switch.

What are your thoughts on how they compare to the original?

Works exactly as it should. It's been a few months since it was installed, and it's still going strong.

Are these compatible with the Nintendo Switch Lite?

The joysticks on the Switch Lite are identical to those on the original Switch.

Selected User Reviews For 2-Pack 3D Replacement Joystick Analog Thumb Stick for Switch Joy-Con Controller & Switch Lite,2 Packs Metal Latch, Include Y1.5 Screwdrivers, Joycon Joystick Replacement to Fix Drift Stick

*Updated Below* One controller worked perfectly, but the second did not
5/5

One of my controllers was able to be repaired, but the second one continues to drift after being replaced. It's not as bad as it was before, but it's still not as good as new. The slide locks and tool kit are features that I appreciate. If both joysticks worked, I'd easily give it a five-star rating. Since the original joysticks did not work, the seller contacted me and sent me a complete set of joysticks and tools. The new ones have been tested and have proven to be effective. They are deserving of 5 stars for their unwavering commitment to their products.

2 Duds, 4 Joysticks, 2 Packs - AWESOME COMPANY
5/5

Update* 10 May 2020br>After reading my review, the company decided to send me a complete kit for free! They sent me an entire kit for the dud. Not b. , but I was ecstatic to get it. c It now has a new joystick, but only because the company read my review and wanted to make things right. This is the place to get a Drift repair kit! They're a good investment. br>br>Original
I have two sets of controllers, and both of them are drifting. br>br>I bought two of these to fix both of them. Installed 1 set, everything went smoothly, then installed the left Joycon on the second set and the right Joycon on the third set. It's not going to stay in the middle. As a result, I calibrated several times. It's still not centered, and it's not hitting the bottom-left calibration line. It's as if the joystick is skewed to the right and slightly forward. br>br>The three that are currently working are fantastic. The tweezers were made of solid metal and were of excellent quality. The pry tools were extremely well-made. The screwdrivers were a disaster. On the first controller, they dismantled themselves into points. Fortunately, I have my own set of drivers that I can use instead. br>br>I'd appreciate it if the company could send me a replacement single joystick for that particular controller. merely an idea: As a result, I'm able to give it a perfect score of 5 stars. Overall, don't be hesitant to purchase this one. It's possible that I've just received a bad joystick.

So far, everything has gone well
5/5

Pre- note: It's because I didn't have any problems that I didn't update this to say something went wrong. br>br>I used to have joycon drift, but after installing these new sticks, I no longer have it. The included tools made opening the joycons a breeze, though you should always keep an online guide open while working on the tiny electronics. These work better than the originals, in my opinion, because they have a slightly notched interior construction that allows the stick to rest in extreme vertical/horizontal positions, similar to how the gamecube's outer shell grooves felt around the stick. This is an over-the-top feature of a regular stick. You're never sure if you're pressing too far in one direction because of the smooth rotation. br>As everyone else has mentioned, after installation, make sure you calibrate.

Before you open the joycons, look up some tutorials
5/5

(Attached photos show the tools after they've been used)br>br>Basically, this product worked exactly as it should. Both of my joycons had been drifting for over a year, and Nintendo is fixing it for free, but it's not currently available in my country (Mexico, because LATAMEL just makes a lot of excuses even when Nintendo made it official). I was so fed up with it that I decided to buy this, and I'm glad I did. br>br>I recommend watching tutorials first to get a general idea of what to do, as the left and right joycons are constructed differently! I found it more difficult to replace the right joystick than the left (I accidentally desoldered the R button). I'm aware that this company provides tutorials and even a small business card as part of the kit, but I didn't notice them. br>br>I've opened and fixed controls a lot of times before, so I have other screw drivers, but I must say that the ones in this kit are really comfortable and easy to use, to the point where I didn't even need to use the replacement screws that come with this kit because the default ones in the joycons were taken out smoothly and without problem. br>br>Overall, the tools and pieces are well made, and it's a nice touch that their joysticks are wired green instead of blue (as is standard) so there are no questions about which joystick needs to be replaced (attached photo shows the default joycon joysticks). Another thing to remember is that after replacing the joysticks, they must be recalibrated in order for them to detect the dead zones and neutral position correctly. This is done in the switch configuration system, and the joycons work perfectly fine after that. br>br>In conclusion, I would recommend purchasing this kit; it's great for a "do it yourself" repair; everything arrived exactly as promised and within the delivery time; I waited a week to write this review, and despite the fact that it's not a long time, I've had no issues with my joycons at all, even though I only use them when I use the switch in portable.
