Gorf restoration

[Indus]

Hey guys, new to the forum... I just finished restoring a Gorf machine, including replacing the SC01 speech chip!   However, my joystick is pulling left... I put in a new grommit and cleaned the optical sensor etc.   No matter what I do I can't get the joystick to center.  Any suggestions?  I am completely stuck.

It's been a while since I looked at mine, but if the plastic cover over the left optical sensor is scratched really bad it could potentially read as closed all the time.  It's either that or the left input wire is shorted somewhere.  The joystick is still just a digital 8-way, so it can't "drift" like an analog stick.

You probably need new optos. Also check for broken solder joints in the optical pcb especially the header pins. Make sure the header pins on the program pcb are clean not bent over.
