Hi I've been trying to fix this problem for a while and it's been very weird since I can't find any examples of this online.

delicate canyon Hi I've been trying to fix this problem for a while and it's been very weird sin...

If you have drift, the only recourse is to replace the controller. If it's under warranty, you may be able to send it in for repair, but from what I've been informed, stick drift isn't covered by warranty.

I'm completely down to fixing it myself, I have the tools to do it I just would like to know what steps could fix this

We're not allowed to discuss self repair here, so the advice I gave is literally the only thing I'm allowed to say.

Completely fair

#

Any ideas what specific type of drift it is then based on the video I sent?

I can't really open it atm, I just know that stick drift can't really be fixed except by a professional (which would require sending it to Microsoft).

Does Microsoft provide a means to buy replacement parts and if so, where can I purchase them? [The Right to Repair Act (SB 244, Eggman 2023)]

I don't think so, but I'm not knowledgeable about that stuff. When something breaks, I usually just replace it ... hence why I have like 10 controllers lying around somewhere lol
