Question

meta 3 Left controller trigger error

Error controller

I am having problems with my left controller; I tried pressing the triggers on the home menu and the buttons do not move when I press them, and in-game it is like a stuck trigger, so I cannot even play games while my trigger is acting up and I cannot get my finger moving.

Try changing the batteries, sometimes one dies before the other. I'm left-handed so use the left controller more and the battery always dies first on that side. However, if the batteries are OK, and if the buttons are stuck it might be a hardware problem with your controller. Then you need to get it repaired or get a new one.

Then it seems like it's broken. You'll need to have it repaired or get a new one. If it's still in warranty you can return it to Meta, if not, you can find a repairer in your country who can fix it. In the US there is

Or if you're in a different country, you can Google for other options.
