I tried testing my joystick with the minipac and it worked fine. Hooked up the trackball and spinner, also fine. Finally completed building my board and now the whole player controller side of the miniPac does not work at all. No buttons, no joysticks, but the trackball and spinner still work. The green LED light is on and my system registers the controller itself.
I've double-checked my wiring and it seems ok. I've got the ground wire connected. I basically wired it exactly the same way I did the first time. I disconnected all the buttons and just tried the joystick, and that's not doing anything.
I've attached a photo to show how I wired one of the joystick microswitches. I'm really at a loss here.
