Repaired joysticks for Xbox series s controller, both axis not zeroed

I just finished my attempt at repairing my Xbox series s controller because of drifting/sticky joystick. Desoldering the joysticks was very difficult, I’m wondering if I damaged the board, the axis for both analogs are off by a significant amount, the left goes to the top right corner when testing. The right goes to the top left corner when testing. All other buttons and vibration works. Is this something I can correct or is the controller just spare parts?

The game pad tester doesn’t register any movement or change in the analog sticks, they seem to be stuck in the corners when testing. The physical movement of the sticks is fine, despite the bad axises.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
