Chosen Solution

So, lately, I’ve been having an issue with my PS4 controller. I think it’s broken, because when I stand idle in a game, the controller moves my character up/forward without me moving the left analog stick. This happens in short stutters, and no matter how many times I click my left stick, it always happens again. I’ve had this issue before, and it got worse to the point where it was unplayable. If you can offer a fix, I would greatly appreciate it.

The said issue/problem occurs when too much dirt/dust gets accumulated in analog stick. There are two options to resolve the issue :

  1. Spray WD-40 Liquid on the Analog Stick, and rotating it in all direction so that entire area is covered and clean of dust.
  2. (Please try only if you are willing to so) Disassemble the DS4 and clean the interior with rubbing alcohol. Option one should resolve your issue.
