Analog Joystick Potentiometer Sensor
The internal resistive tracks on the potentiometer sensors wear down through friction, creating dead zones or erratic voltage signals. Replacing the side-mounted sensor discs restores the accurate resistance-to-voltage mapping required for the controller's MCU to detect the true neutral position. This is the most granular repair for resistive track failure.

Analog Stick Module (ALPS 3-Pin)
Replacing the entire module addresses both the resistive wear on the sensors and any mechanical fatigue in the centering spring mechanism. This component is the root source of the input signal; a new assembly ensures the mechanical return-to-center physics align with the factory calibration of the sensors.

Precision Thumbstick Replacement Kit
If the physical plastic thumbstick has developed play at the mounting point (the 'gate'), it can prevent the module from returning to a perfectly vertical neutral position. A new thumbstick ensures the physical interface between the user and the module is rigid and centered.
