Title: Wiring my illuminated joystick?
Post by: joshkbaker on November 24, 2013, 12:17:32 pm
Completely new to all this arcade cabinet installation. I've managed to get my buttons to properly work when I press them , however I have an illuminated joystick?
I cant for the life of me work out how to power it to light up and how to get input from it?
I'm using a minipac PCB. I have a 5 pin connector which goes into the joystick and a pin that has 2 wires which I believe lights the bulb inside the joystick.

As you can see they have copper ends so im confused where these wires go?

Hope someone can help!

Thanks
