Feature

●[Joystick Desoldering Kit] ? The kit was designed for desoldering the thumbstick assembly off controller PCB simply with a normal soldering iron. With as many as 14 prongs, removing the problem analog stick is the most difficult task. An CNCed heating plate soaks all the solder joints simultaneously. It makes it possible to remove the entire joystick at one time. Solder remover tools are included
●[Pure Copper Heating Plate] ? The plate evenly conducts the heat from soldering iron to all prongs of the joystick. A hot air rework station also works. Work with the joysticks made by ALPS and Favor Union (FU) found in most wired and wireless controllers: PS5, PS4 Slim and Pro, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and Elite 1/2, Switch Pro, Steam Deck and most 3rd party controllers, and some Drone and VR remote like DJI. (??Note: Study the picture and compatible list before ordering.)
●[Soldering Wick and Holes Cleaner] ? The No-Clean solder wick braid removes most of solder on the PCB. It also cleans some bigger soldering holes with no problem. However, the through-holes of potentiometers are rather difficult to clean up. The set of needles is for this purpose. Made from premium stainless steel. Bit diameter from 0.5 to 1.2mm works with most controllers PCB
●[What ElecGear did more?] ? 1. In many cases, replacing the potentiometer alone can solve most of joystick problems. Please go to the product ID: B09KVG19C1 for the OEM 3Pin sensors. 2. Take a look at ID: B09KVG7DGY for the replacement joystick series made by ALPS and FU. 3. About drifting problem, turn to ID: B0BGPCCYH8 for Drift Fix repair kit presented by ElecGear. 4. Seriously follow the desoldering steps we presented on the user guide
●[What’s in Package] ? 1x Heating Plate (Pure Copper), 1x Soldering Wick (EL-2015), 1x Hole Cleaning Needles (Stainless Steel 0.5mm - 1.2mm), 1x Tweezer (ESD-15). (??Note: Your soldering iron should be more than 60Watt. The soldering iron and other supplies are NOT included!)


Description

The kit was designed for desoldering the thumbstick assembly off PCB simply with a normal soldering iron. With as many as 14 prongs, removing the problem analog stick is the most difficult task. The CNCed heating plate soaks all the solder joints simultaneously. It makes it possible to remove the entire joystick at one time. Solder remover tools are included

[Before Ordering]
1. The heating plate works with most joysticks, however not all. Please study the picture and compatible list
2. Make sure the entire joystick unit should be replaced. In many cases, replacing the potentiometer alone can solve most of joystick problems. Please go to the potentiometers at product ID: B09KVG19C1
3. Also take a look at the replacement joystick listed by ElecGear modeled from EL1 to EL7 at ID: B09KVG7DGY
4. About drifting problem, turn to ID: B0BGPCCYH8 for Drift Fix repair kit
5. Your soldering iron should be more than 60W, choose a bigger iron tip and set the temperature high
