Einleitung

This guide will show you how to access and replace the L and R sticks of your PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller. If you need to clean any residue surrounding the sticks, pulling them off will help you do so.

    • Pull the L and R sticks out of the socket.

    I am having a hard time sourcing the parts for this repair. Any tips on where to order new L and R sticks, or analog thumbsticks, as I’m seeing them referred to? I ordered Nintendo Pro Controller analog thumbsticks online and could not complete the repair as the underside of the knobs were not the right shape/fit. I need PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller parts. Help!

    I’m having the same issue. Regular replacement joystick won’t fit and I can’t seem to find joysticks for specifically power A wireless controllers. Have you had an luck since commenting this?

Hi, Where can I buy replacement sticks, mine are trashed?

James Bennett -

You can try looking up small hole controller thumbsticks on Aliexpress. Not the best but they’ll do. Might have to trim the edges a bit to fit through the front case.

Any idea where to get joysticks for these? I ordered switch pro controller joysticks and the hole underneath is too big for the rod.

robert Fram -

I may have find what is the exact part that make up the joystick: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/16273 based on that, the replacement joystick should be this: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/17263

I will try to order some and post back if that works.

I received my replacement tumb stick from AliExpress and they 100% work! They are much cheaper feel than the original thumbstick but at least I have a working controller. You can get them here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10050031...
