Answer
Hi

Apologies for not answering the question right away. Bit of a family emergancy at home. Anyways...

I've had a look to see if there is an immediate fix for this, and apparently if your operating a wireless internet connection, that could be the problem if the frequencies are the same. You could try that and check it out.

If not, it is usually one of two things. You either have some gunk in the controller, which is interferring with the button or the controller is simply on its way out. If its the first scenario, opening it up should show whats causing it, so you should be able to (carefully) clean it quite well.

If it really is on its way out, I really cant help you.

My advice, is that this is one of those problems where its much easier to replace the problem instead of trying to fix it. Try a wired controller if cost is an issue as really its more effort thasn its worth.

Again, sorry bout the lateness of reply. Family member was in hospital, so I'm not going to go into too much detail, but yeah... everything sorta went on around me hehe.

Hope this helps
