This guide will take you through the steps of removing the joystick. This will come in handy if you have a rogue joystick

Place the controller (buttons down) on a solid surface.
-
Remove the six 9.2mm Tri-wing Y0 screws that hold the back panel in place.
-
-
-
Gently lift the back panel up, separating it from the front panel.
For some reason, it was simpler to take the top half off, although it could be because it is most probably refurbished before

Grab the Z-button by the peg with tweezers and lift it out of the controller.
So how do you put it back in like the replacement because I have a controller I'm working a junker my Friend gave me and I'm trying to fix it the z button doesn't work here it's a pelican wireless controller it's actually not to bad bulky but not bad

Carefully unhook the cable that is looped around the peg.
Um can soneone explain the peg and cable part? I dont understand it...
I would say that the cable is somehow "hooked" to the case and you have to get the cable away from the case so that you can pull out the board

Grab the base of the grey cover and pull it off.
Where can you get the square device under the the plastic joy stick
Love your site, I am actually trying to replace the analog underneath my joystick. This site is a great reference tool for different fixes though. I will definitely be visiting again in the future.

Great guide, but I'm looking to buy replacement joysticks and I can't find them anywhere. Where would I find those?
When I removed the joystick it would come off. The plastic was stuck too hard to the joystick so I accidentally broke it in half. Is there anyway to glue it back together?
@Tyler Lovejoy - That's already part of the controller.
@Joe Freedman - Try Amazon.com
@Mattias Wirsenius - At this point it would be best to buy a new controller.
This guide is quite unhelpful; it tells you how to remove the stick but not how to repair it. My controller's joystick has sunken into the controller and stays slightly tilted if i move it to the right. Yet when I go to the "rogue joystick" portion of the troubleshooting guide, it tells me to repair the joystick if it's not correctly attached to the motherboard. Seriously, there needs to be a more in-depth guide if such repairs are possible.
without taking the controller completely apart, pull the joystick straight up with your hand
If it stay tilted, it because of a solid cluster of dust in the mechanism. After having remove the analog stick, look good solid black dust on it for each different rotation of the analog. After having clean it, to remove completely all the dust insistig with air compressed (shouldn't be any in risk in damaging something). The stick should come back as new.
The dust is conductive and give bad signal reading

This forum post has some options to make your stick unwobbly.
my controller cannot receive inputs left or right, only up and down. i tried unplugging it and plugging it back in, but it did not help. i dont know what is wrong.
did you ever find a fix?
I have the same issue with my controller as well. If anyone has a solution to this problem I would also like to know.
I had this problem. Removing the joystick you can observe that the analog plastic is snapped meaning that my input left and right wasn’t picked up unless I pushed down really hard. The solution seems to be to place a thin piece of metal, like a part of a paperclip, insert it into the hole in the plastic and then glue the joystick plastic together.

Amazing. I had a controller from when the cube first came out and my joystick was falling apart- SO i used this guide to take apart mine and one of the spares that had wire problems so i could swap out the joystick and it worked perfectly!
So something new I learned is, when putting the new joysticks on (particularly the grey one) don't push them all the way down. If you do so then they don't spin properly. You kinda want a happy medium of down deep enough but not too far. Try to line up the bottom of the joystick with the letters/numbers on the blocks.
