Rinbers® Left Right Analog Joysticks with PCB and Flex Cable Assembly Replacement for Nintendo Wii U Gamepad Controller

My husbands wii u gamepads left analog stick was sticking horribly. It would continuously think my character was moving to the left. Turns out, the cats at his old place somehow sprayed the gamepad and there was a lot of residue inside causing the analog stick board to be corroded. This was the best deal I could find. I only used the left one because his gamepad was hardly used. It works perfectly and its like brand new!

Perfect fit. Just recommend buying the special screwdriver to open the game console.

Got 2 right hand control sticks. Instead of 1 of each. Of course I needed the left stick.

Simple install and thankfully included the triwing screwdriver and a small Philips screwdriver. Only installed the left side but drift issue is fixed. Note: there are 10 screws to remove before you even get to the good stuff. I reused the factory wire harness as the included replacement was longer than necessary. Lots of youtube videos that will help. Difficulty rating 3/10

Worked

gave life back to my broken wiiu gamepad. easy install and cheap 10/10

With this component and the aid of a Youtube tutorial I managed to fix my Wii U gamepad! Delivered within a few days to The Netherlands!

The first one I ordered was defective. I contacted Rinbers and they responded very quickly asking what I wanted to do. I decided to get a replacement, it shipped and arrived quickly and works fine. Great customer service, thank you!

Do they lock into position? Yes but only when not installed in the controller. The OEM sticks do as well. The controller is designed to restrict the joysticks from ever moving far enough to lock into position. Installing them instead of just complaining before trying will result in success. They fixed the drift issue on the wiiu I used them on

We recieved both a Left and a Right joystick, however the Left one does not work. Would be a great product if both were functional.
