Joystick not working - Im upset :(

Post by darrylkorg »

Hi All,

Suddenly the X feature of the joystick is not working. I tried factory reset 3 - 4 times but no use. Any suggestions???

I saw previous posts on the same topic. Should i be returning this or is there something that i need to try before contacting the store???

Please help :( :(

Regards,
Darryl

Not much you can do short of opening the case and checking the joystick for physical issues. If you're lucky it will just be a loose connector.

If not and the board is out of warranty there's this ...

My first 2 PA600's had joystick issues. I have ordered my third.

Ouch! You must be a heavy-duty pitch-bender!

I basically just use my joystick occasionally as a switch in the Y-axis. It'll probably last forever. ;-)
