There are many variants of this part, so it's great that these are all listed as explicit options when ordering from ElecGear. The first part I ordered (from a different vendor) wasn't exactly the same so it didn't work. Also if you're doing this repair and your symptom is that the joystick doesn't register its full directional input (typically up/down on the left controller) you can repair it without having to desolder the whole sensor module. You can carefully bend the green housing that holds the potentiometer away from the module, and remove the small gray circular insert with metal spring contact. Then replace it with the same gray insert and metal spring contact from the new module. No soldering required. Review: Perfetti! - Ho dissaldato gli stick originali usurati del mio Nintendo Pro Controller e saldato i nuovi stick della ElecGear. Perfetti, il Pro Controller Γ¨ tornto come nuovo! Pienamente soddisfatto. ## Features - [EL3 for Switch Pro Controller] – 4x replacement analog joystick work with Nintendo Switch Pro and some PS3 controllers. The thumbstick module was made by ALPS. This RKJXV stick controller series comes with 10KΞ© trimmer potentiometers - [Compatibility] – This version of analog stick comes in dark gray bottom plate with two plastic sticks inserting in the PCB. It locks in 3 directions when not sit in controller cover. The trim pot resistors can be in green or black. It is widely used in Switch Pro controller. Some reported it is also used in 8Bitdo SNES controllers - [Additional Resistor] – Complicated moving mechanism and daily wear and tear finally caused drifting. Even new sensors cannot be 100% balanced. Calibrating in controller settings might not work. We packed 10x correction resistors to solve the potential problem in hardware level. Solder one or two paralleled tiny resistors onto the potentiometer at the opposite direction against drifting. It will help correct 3 to 5 degrees drifting - [When to replace] – The analog joystick needs to be replaced when your controller has the problem of drifting, creeping, stuttering, a blind spot, a dead spot, a dead zone, no reaction when clicking, or it wouldn't center after years of wear and tear. The OEM genuine repair parts ensure accuracy and prolong lifespan - [Reminder of Operation] – With as many as 14 prongs, de-soldering and soldering the whole module takes serious skills. Professional repair with a heat gun is suggested. You can simply replace the side potentiometer sensor alone to solve most of the joystick problems ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07R5Q15B9 | | Best Sellers Rank | 20,462 in PC & Video Games ( See Top 100 in PC & Video Games ) 95 in PlayStation 4 Gamepads & Standard Controllers | | Country of origin | China | | Customer reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (2,688) | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Item model number | EL4-Xbox | | Package Dimensions | 9.09 x 3.2 x 3.2 cm; 60 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ElecGear - **Compatible devices:** [PS4 Controller, PS3 Controller] - **Controller type:** Joystick - **Connectivity technology:** [BLANK] - **Colour:** EL2 FU 10K for PS4 / Some PS3 ## Images ![ElecGear 4x Replacement Joystick (EL3 ALPS) compatible with Nintendo Switch Pro and PS3 Wireless Controller, Analog Stick Controller Sensor Assembly Thumbstick Module - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Byj4DQLOL.jpg) ![ElecGear 4x Replacement Joystick (EL3 ALPS) compatible with Nintendo Switch Pro and PS3 Wireless Controller, Analog Stick Controller Sensor Assembly Thumbstick Module - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61On7aUoCmL.jpg) ![ElecGear 4x Replacement Joystick (EL3 ALPS) compatible with Nintendo Switch Pro and PS3 Wireless Controller, Analog Stick Controller Sensor Assembly Thumbstick Module - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61yJ8urBzTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are you sure these are alps modules? i think the orange and black modules are made by polyshine/favor union. you can tell by the "f" logo on the side.** A: These are favor union modules. F logo followed by RSF. I ordered these prior to controller tear down. **Q: Are the orange ones the same sensor wheel as the orange ds4 ones? i bought a pack of the blue sensor wheels only, but i need orange ones instead.** A: Yes the orange ones are more sensitive the are the new gen, but you can use blue ones, just need to put both sensors you Can't use 1 blue 1 orange **Q: What is the spring tension? Howany grams?** A: Don't know the grams in specific, all i can say is they work and feel like the originals. I have been using them for more than 3 months **Q: Can you substitute the blue joysticks for the orange?** A: I am not sure, sorry. I thought I read somewhere on here that the pin location was different between the orange and blue? I replaced mine 3 months ago and I thought there was a reason why you should replace in kind but cannot remember. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ EL3 works for Nintendo Switch Pro Controller *by J***S on 12 October 2025* I used this (EL3 model) to repair a Nintendo Switch Pro controller.
