Hi
so, my DualSense controller started to drift a few days ago. Drifting basicly means that it inputs a joy stick command without me actually doing anything. In my case it wouldn't stop going left, I couldn't do anything, sometimes it went away, but it came back and stayyed.
I have now ordered a new controller and should be here in a few hours, but I wonder. Has this happened to any other users? And is this the only way of fixing it?

There is a way you can fix drifting without ordering a new controller, but only if you're comfortable opening the controller up.

It has happened on one of the two controllers I have, except it is no physical issue. The controller is not actually sticking and there is nothing stuck or brokeno n the controller. It seems to be some very weird issue that no one can actually explain.

I have never experienced this.
