That white piece is usually the problem . You need to look at it with a magnifying glass and check the wearing of the two arms. They will wear out ,break and form a sharp edge that will scratch through the black layer on the green potentiometer that you bent out. If you see the metal under the black coating then you need to replace the green part as well as the white part. The best thing you can do is replace the white piece be for it is damaged . Or you will be doing some soldering.

Massive thank you! I had stick drift mostly in my left joystick, the white disc had a brown layer on the ring. It just needed some cleaning and it was fixed. Ty Fuad

Thank you so much! Method 3 completely got rid of my stick drift. I can finally play without having to worry about it! Edit: Nevermind, it didn't work 😭
-
Great video. It was one of most in depth and easy to follow disassemble and assemble videos i have seen for the dual sense. Thanks
-
I cleaned and replaced both of those little white pieces. It improved but still drifts.

Definitely recommend the third option to a tee. Don't use a q-tip cause some of the hairs can catch & make the drift worse. Instead of the alcohol wipe, I dump a microfiber cloth into rubbing alcohol to clean. Be cautious of the wires for snapping, I broke mine that connected to in game chat but I'm fine without that.
