Introduction
In this repair I will be teaching you how to fix stick drift on the Oculus Quest 2 controller (this should work on other controllers but I have not tested that).
You do not have to take your device apart at all for this and please give me feed back if there are any problems at all!
-
-
Buy isopropyl alcohol, the higher the percentage the better it will work (this liquid will not damage electronics and is made to clean them).
-
-
-
Pour the alcohol on the joy stick (I would pour quite a bit on to make sure you can get all that dust) making sure it goes under and into the device, now move around the joy stick and work the alcohol into the underneath of the joystick (this removes the dust that causes stick drift).

-
Now leave the controller for about and hour to make sure all the alcohol evaporates to prevent damage. (You can leave it in a warm environment or use a hair dryer to heat up around the joy stick to be 100% certain. You won't have to heat it up very hot as this liquid evaporates very quickly).

Now enjoy no stick drift however this process will have to be repeated once dust forms again under the joy stick.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
