Left Thumbstick Board
The ROG Ally utilizes a modular joystick design where the stick is mounted to a dedicated secondary PCB. A failure localized to the X-axis suggests a mechanical or electrical failure of the specific sensor component responsible for horizontal tracking. Replacing the entire thumbstick board assembly resolves the issue by providing a new sensor and mechanical gimbal.

Joystick Interconnect Cable
While less likely to cause a single-axis failure, the ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) ribbon cable carries the data signals from the thumbstick board to the mainboard. If the cable is seated poorly or has a micro-fracture on the specific trace for the X-axis signal, it would result in the reported symptom.
