Ms. Pacman / Galaga Reunion 4-way stick problem

Pages: << < (3/3)

Dervacumen:

I had the same issue with both the Reunion and the Super.  Since I had an unopened Reunion stick, I compared the thunking one and the unopened one, and found that I had put the dumbell shaped grommet on upside down.  I think that grommet slightly changes the height the stick assembly rests in the body, and that caused the spring to stick.

I put this one together in every configuration possible. The thing didn't even work any other way. I am convinced it is assembled correctly. Maybe I could put in a washer or something above the bottom e-clip to tighten things up a bit. I'll take some pictures and video tommorrow and maybe we can figure this thing out.

Thanks!

Man, I'm sorry, 'cause that's a major pain in the ***.  Nothing bites worse than a jstick config that should work but doesn't.

You may have a lemon.

Well, I went to do some video/pictures yesterday. After doing some before shots, I started to take things apart. I got to the pivot cone, and noticed that it was upside down. I decided what the hay, and flipped it over again. put it all back together and Voila! It worked. I know for a fact I flipped that dang thing around before and tried it. I must have switched 2 things around because it got worse then. Thank you all for your help. I can now finish my 4-way vertical cabinet in peace.
