Your character walks away while you hold the Joy-Con still, or the menu scrolls on its own. That is Joy-Con drift: the stick thinks it is being pushed to one side. It is typical of a classic stick: the contact that measures the position wears with heavy use. In a Switch Lite, such a stick is inside the console itself.
FIXNOW replaces the stick in a Joy-Con or Joy-Con 2, in a Switch Pro Controller and in a Switch Lite. A diagnosis comes first, and you know the price before we begin. You can come by in Antwerp or Wolvertem, or ship the device yourself with track & trace.
Some repairs come in several versions. Choose below which one fits your device — the price per model is further down.
from €39
Best for: One stick drifts: the camera or character moves on its own, even when you are not touching the stick.
from €49
Best for: The stick drifts and you want a fix that lasts longer than a regular stick.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controllerfrom €49We repair stick drift on four devices. The method differs per device, the choice does not: you choose either one new stick or TMR sticks on both sides.
A TMR stick reads the position magnetically, based on the Hall effect principle. Because the sliding contact is missing, there is less wear and the stick lasts much longer.
We check which stick is drifting and whether the stick is the cause or something else.
You hear what each option costs and decide yourself: one stick or both as TMR sticks.
After replacing it, we test the stick in the system menu and during a game.
Yes, each Joy-Con is handled separately. If only the left or the right one has drift, we replace the stick only in that Joy-Con.
The controls are built into the console. That is why we open the Switch Lite and replace one stick or both sticks.
Yes, the Joy-Con 2 also still has a classic stick with a contact that wears. You can choose one new stick or TMR sticks on both sides.
Yes. The sticks are on the motherboard, so replacing them is done by soldering. You choose yourself: the one stick or new TMR sticks.
Calibrating corrects the midpoint, but the contact that is wearing out is still there. The drift can therefore come back.
