ElecGear 8X ALPS 2.1K Replacement Potentiometer Features
-
[ALPS 2.1KΩ Potentiometer] – The OEM trim pot resistor was made by ALPS. It fits ALPS analog joysticks. This trimmer potentiometer works with PS5 DualSense and some PlayStation 4 DualShock 4 wireless controllers with 2.1K ohm ALPS thumbstick module inside
-
[Compatibility] – ALPS sensors come in two different resistance values. Make sure the value is around 2.1K before ordering. Never judge its value by its color. (Be noticed: Choose 10KΩ version for most PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Elite Series 1 and 2, Xbox Series S|X and Switch Pro controllers. ALPS version is not interchangeable with the orange version made by FU.)
-
[Additional Drift Fix PCB] – Several factors cause joystick drifting a common issue. Even new joysticks can drift. The potentiometer was born without precision. Wear to the carbon film, spring fatigue and material stretching made it not centered. Dust, moisture and drop make it worse. We packed PCB to fix the problem of drifting in one direction. Simply adjust the variable resistor to eliminate the drifting
-
[For most joystick problem] – The potentiometer sensor needs to be replaced when the controller has the problem of creeping, stuttering, a blind spot, a dead spot, a dead zone, or it wouldn't center after years of wear and tear. De-soldering the unit with only 3Pins will be a lot easier than replacing the entire joystick with as many as 14 prongs
-
[Reminder of Replacement] – Use a pair of pliers to separate the problem sensor off the joystick module. Try to replace the wiper first, see if it works. De-solder the sensor off the PCB. A metal pick helps to clear the holes. Soldering the new unit in is a breeze. Remember to calibrate the new control sticks in settings
About ElecGear 8X ALPS 2.1K Replacement Potentiometer
ALPS 2.1K Potentiometer 8x OEM trim pot resistor was made by ALPS. It fits ALPS analog joysticks. This trimmer potentiometer works with PS5 DualSense and some PlayStation 4 DualShock 4 wireless controllers with 2.1K ohm ALPS thumbstick module inside 1. Solve most of joystick problems: 80% chances of joystick problems were caused by the potentiometer. In another words, the rotary mechanism and the tactile switches are not the problem. You can simply replace the side potentiometer sensor alone to solve most of the problems 2. Additional resistors included: Complicated moving mechanism and daily wear and tear can cause drifting, and even new potentiometers can not be 100% balanced. Calibrating in controller settings might not work. Please solder one or more paralleled resistors at the opposite direction against drifting Compatibility Notes: 1.ALPS version is not interchangeable with the orange version made by Favor Union 2.ALPS potentiometers come in two different resistance values. Never judge its value by its color. Make sure the resistance value is 2.1K ohm before ordering 3.Please choose 10K ohm for most PS3, PS4 DualShock 4, Xbox One, Elite Series 1 and 2, Xbox Series S|X and Switch Pro controllers
