Note: Replacing analog requires experience and the right equipment!

● Issue Description

1. One of the analog sticks moves automatically in a certain direction (drifting).
2. The analog stick button (L3 or R3) does not register when pressed.

● Diagnostics

1. During testing on the main page, the analog movement path appears inaccurate or moves by itself without any input.

● Repair Steps

1. Apply flux and a small amount of fresh solder to the joints.
2. Use hot air at around 350°C with airflow level 2–3 to desolder the damaged analog module.
3. Heat the area evenly – you can assist with a soldering iron if needed.
4. Clean the solder pads thoroughly after removing the old part.
5. Align and solder the new analog stick in place, ensuring all pins are properly connected.
