Hi All,
I'm trying to fix the two 1977 CX10 joysticks that I have. I almost have one completed, but am running into one issue. The little touch pad rectangles are all in good shape on the PCB. When I depress them by themselves, they work on screen. I can hook up the wires to the PCB, screw it down to the plastic piece that holds the springs in place, and everything still works. The issue starts when I go to put the joystick base back on and screw it together. Seems like something continues to get too much pressure or gets pinched. and the joystick no longer functions correctly. For example, in Missile Command, if I push the stick left or right, the graphic keeps going without stopping. Any ideas?
