Rinbers® Left Right Analog Joysticks with PCB and Flex Cable Assembly Replacement for Nintendo Wii U Gamepad Controller

One of our control sticks was failing. Bought this, used Ifixit website Nintendo Wii U GamePad Analog Stick Replacement by Kim Arre as a guide, and less than an hour later we were up and running. Note: before installation it may seem like sticks will get stuck all the way in one direction. Once installed ours didn’t and work exact same as original. I also bought the XOOL Triwing Screwdriver for Nintendo - Professional Full Triwing Screwdriver Repair Tool Kit,3.8mm and 4.5mm Security Screwdriver Game Bit Tool Set for Nintendo Switch Joycon/Nintendo Wii/DS/DSL/GBA for some of the specialty tool. That worked fine as well.

Perfect fit. Just recommend buying the special screwdriver to open the game console.

I have never worked on electronics before, though I know my way around tools (around the house). Its pretty straight forward. I didnt even watch a Youtube video before. Just look at what screws are in your way and remove those. Put them in a box, preferable white or light colored so you can find them again easily. The screws inside are a 3 star shape, which thankfully this kit comes with. Make sure you change out the white cable too. The original one is soldered on. I thought I had to keep the old one, but the old white cable didnt fit into the new joysticks. Then I realized the white cables needed to be changed also. The new white cables just click on. Very easy. Make sure everything is clean before you reassemble. If you spilled soda or whatever on your controller make sure its all clean while you have it open! Wii U controller works great now. No more sticky controls.

One month in, great replacement part - feels closer to the Switch Pro Controller stick than the Wii Us original stick but that is a good thing for me personally.

We recieved both a Left and a Right joystick, however the Left one does not work. Would be a great product if both were functional.

Only needed the left, but it worked perfect

My husbands wii u gamepads left analog stick was sticking horribly. It would continuously think my character was moving to the left. Turns out, the cats at his old place somehow sprayed the gamepad and there was a lot of residue inside causing the analog stick board to be corroded. This was the best deal I could find. I only used the left one because his gamepad was hardly used. It works perfectly and its like brand new!

Shipped fast, worked as intended

gave life back to my broken wiiu gamepad. easy install and cheap 10/10

After waiting several months for the product to ship from China, the product turned out to be defective.
