    My controller automatically makes me jump at random times, I’ve kept it because it actually helps me in fights I start jumping and sweating on kids in warzone😂

    I had mad drift trouble on my controller and whenever I played and walked forward my guy would go right as well and I had to constantly stop my movement to get it to stop, this worked so well and it stopped completely after I blew into it. Thank you for sharing this trick.

      @@Lowkey_Magiic I'm sorry to say but maybe it's too broke for it to have worked, blowing into it was supposed to remove dust that could be stuck and be messing with the components, but if it's damaged in some way then it shouldn't work.

    My joystick would take a second to start responding and drifted for a second after being released and made every game feel like I was skating.

    3:00 - Actually as long as the controller is powered off and has been for a few min, it won't get damaged if liquid gets inside, so long as you let it dry out for a bit.
    For isopropyl, it evaporates pretty quickly. Can even just put the controller in front of a fan to speed it up.
    You can even just pour it inside the joystick or dunk the entire control in an isopropyl bath, let it dry, and nothing will be damaged but the dust will be gone.
    Again, so long as you let it dry and it's powered off with no battery inside when you do it. You can even put the controller in your dishwasher or bathtub and it'll still be fine.
    This is how I clean my keyboards, I put it in the dishwasher, let it dry, and boom it's clean and fixes any dust issues.
    Using soaps and detergents can erode stuff, but if you're only using water it's fine for the most part. Only isopropyl and there's no erosion risk at all.

    Best way to fix it is to manually take the front face off the controller and just clean the sticks or whatever buttons that needed to be clean and then test the controller once you’re satisfy just put it back together, done. Its so easy and does not take too much time.

    I know the first method works for a lot of people, but this was certainly not the case for me. I tried blowing into the analog stick at the four different angles and rotated it around for about 30 to 40 seconds. Not only this didn't help, but now ALL of the buttons don't work! I don't know if some saliva blew into the thing or maybe I rotated it too much (I really hope that's not a thing). It just doesn't work. It's highly probable I managed to do something wrong idunno

    If you have sticky buttons take the battery’s out of your controller and dump 91% isopropyl alcohol into any sticky buttons or honestly anywhere that needs cleaned it drys within a few minutes and works great idk how good it is for your controller but mine are fine
