Default Joystick Issues

Hi Guys, I am new here. I have a question about my 2014 IS250 F joystick. I live in Southern California so the climate is kinda low temp in morning and night and extremely hot during the day. My joystick works very poorly during the morning, it's hard to press down and it evenly has the click sound every time I try to press it. But during the day, it works I think it suppose to be like, smoothly and soft press feeling. Ain't it suppose to work smoothly all the time?

Has anyone had the same joystick problem like I do? Please advise what is wrong with my joystick.

Welcome to the forums!

Temperature likely has nothing to do with it... In many northern climates, the temperature swings are even greater. Mine has always been smooth, even down to -30°C. I've always been interested in how the joystick creates it's "resistance" which I think is some electromagnetic thing. Might want to get the dealer to check it out.

Try going into your settings and change the level of resistance. Seems like it might be set to the highest setting which may make it harder to move. Although, I do agree that you should get it checked by the dealer.

I already pulled my car to the local dealer, and after they examined my car, they decided to order a new toggle for my car. Thank you!
