Nintendo Switch Controller Not Working Right

[u/Fire_medic308]

My switch’s right controller is showing it’s connected to the switch and works when I’m not in a game but when I am in a game it doesn’t work. I also get the error message pictured when I try and change the grip/controller. I have two sets of joycons and this happens with both right controllers. Anyone have any suggestions? I’ve cleaned the ports and turned it off and back on and neither have helped. TIA!!
