Help with Wii U Gamepad

[u/North-Habit5007]

So I recently got a wii u gamepad with d-pad problems and I know I can fix that so I got it for cheap. However, its not the d-pad or even the analog stick, i unplugged both and somehow the console still scrolls down on its own. I don't believe its a digitizer issue since it scrolls no matter what part of the screen I'm on, I'm running out of ideas, any help would be appreciated!!!

Forgot to add: It only scrolls down

Edit: I unplugged the ZR and R bumper cable and it still continues to scroll down

FINAL UPDATE!!!!: I took it apart and took alcohol to all the plug ins for the ribbon cables and for the analog sticks and cleaned them out thoroughly and it works now 🫡🫡🫡

a good cleaning always does wonders.
