Pelican real arcade question

Hellfromabove:

Take a close up shot of the PCB and I can trace the different grounds and hots for you. Thanx.

-See Ya!!!

Crowquill:

One other (possibly easier) thing to check on the wiring:

If you have a multimeter or continuity tester, check to make sure the wiring has continuity from the switch contact to the point on the circuit board under the plug the wire goes to. I made the assumption you were using quick disconnects. Soldering makes switching the wiring tough.

I bought the PS2-only version since I figured the universal controllers usually have problems with PS adapters. I already had PS adapters for PC, XBOX, and GameCube. It was also $10 cheaper than the universal.

Sorry if they are blurry our camera sucks that why I had to take them outside.  I hope this helps.  I looked at it and there is the ground wire chained to the other buttons so I am confused again.


struby:

I don't know if someone already said this, but i had 2 of each of the different kind of pelican joysticks...the smaller ones with no cord compartment and the larger ones with a cord compartment, both of one of the kinds, not sure which, start and back buttons did not work, and I am not sure why exactly.  Mine were the universal kind.  one kind my computer recognized as an "integral symbol"b, or squiggly line b, whatever, and the other it recognized as a 4 way wheel or something.  Hope that helps some.
