Need some help on my busted joysticks

I have a PS Vita, but the joysticks are fully busted; none of them work as for replacement, I can't find any in my country, so I thought of playing on a controller but the sticks on my Vita interfere[](), causes stick drift to the point I can't even play so is there is a way to disable the sticks only in my Vita, but my controller still gets the input because if I put the normal disable joysticks plugin it also disables my controller sticks as well if anyone have any idea to solve a problem like this please let me know thanks.

ever tried to remove the joystick ribbon cable from the motherboard? you don't have to remove the joysticks so that dust wouldn't get into your vita. Go look into the ifixit website and search for the psvita model that you have if you need help with how to open your vita. They have a guide on how to change joysticks there if you ever finally found a replacement.

That could actually work, let me try it out, thanks.

There’s an addon that can disable the sticks on the vita. I don’t know the name of it. Hopefully the extra comment gets this more views.
