moved my cab...now trackball doesn't work right
krazy_kenny1:
Well after taking it apart, everything appears to be physically functioning. I blew the sensor out with compressed air and it didn't help. I guess the Y-axis PCB is just dead :(
bkenobi:
Aren't the two pcb's identical? Is it possible to swap them and see if it's hardware or the board itself?

I did that...putting the X-axis board on the Y-axis wheel works (moves the X-axis of course). Anyone know where I can get just a replacement board? The only thing I saw on Happ's website was the whole USB conversion kit which is like $50.

I had to replace the boards on my Happ 2 years ago. DiveMaster on this forum sells them. Or sold them. Not sure if they're still available.
bkenobi:
Before you toss the old board(s), get a magnifying glass out and see if you can find any problems with the y-axis board. It's possible that you just need to adjust the sensor or resolder something. Worst case you can't fix it, but it's possible you can repair it and save both time and money.
