| Comment | It's lucky you have two since it'll allow you to do some trouble shooting.
You can try recalibrating the analog sticks to make sure it's not a software issue. If they continue to drift, try transferring the joycons from the switch with the dead battery and see if those drift. If they don't drift, then you know for sure it's the analog sticks that are broken.
Then, for the other switch, you can try [swapping the batteries](https://youtu.be/m8JDbQTk5zw?t=25) to see if it's a battery issue or something deeper. If the swap fixes the issue, then you know you just need a new battery. You'll need a 1.5mm Y00 Tri-Point screw driver to open them.
This'll save you a lot of money. As for fixing the joycons if the sticks are broke... it's a relatively easy fix as well. No soldering, just a ribbon connector and two screws but there's a lot of springs and stuff holding the buttons in place that I could see going wrong.
Either way, the parts can be bought for £30-60 online and there's plenty of guides online for doing it yourself. |
