x360 wireless analog issues

NotYourHero · 23 Dec 2010

It seems to go from game to game and happens with any wireless controller. In GTAIV I ghost to the upper left corner on the left analog. In Bully I can only walk fast in every direction but up ( faster walk not sprinting with the a button). Playing my kingdom hearts on pcsx2 I cannot run up to the left or up to the right. My controller works seemingly fine on other games. Is this just a impossible to fix deadzone issue? I know some games can have it. I also noticed on a wired controller these issues dont exist, but i dont actually own one, just borrowed to test. Its really starting to frustrate me. I also noticed none of my controllers sit properly in windows controller configuration. The cords for the right analog like to sit weird, and sometimes the left analog likes to move a little away from the middle.

what can I do?

EDIT: Ok with bully it is my controller, others work fine. I dont understand why since it hurts nothing else.

Have you tried to calibrate?

i FOUND THE ISSUE! and yes I did. I ripped my 360 controller apart and found its the analog nub. Its not putting proper pressure on it. If I do it myself it works swimmingly ( pressing on the metal inside without the plastic piece on it. So how can I fix that?

Maybe a piece of foam....

what do you mean?

I honestly do not understand why its doing this. I have to put very little pressure on the metal stick to make it run properly. I don't understand why the nub isn't doing it right.
