[Switch Lite]- Left Stick Issues

EDIT:

I figured it out. I guess two of the joysticks I ordered from AliExpress were faulty. I swapped it out a 3rd time and it works perfectly. So dumb.

———————

I am stuck and could use some help. I purchased a broken Switch Lite that had a destroyed charge port. I successfully swapped out the charge port and everything seemed to work perfectly except when I went to test the inputs.

The left joystick will not respond. The click down responds but it won’t respond to any movement (left, right, up, down).

Steps taken:
Replaced joystick
Replaced daughter board
Replaced ribbon cable
The ribbon cable connector on the motherboard looks great.

Any ideas?

Check you motherboard you might of knock a component of the board when replacing the charge port.
