CGQuarterly Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I received a free PC Engine Duo-RX controller as part of a purchase this week, but it acts as though the left direction is always being pushed. I took the pad apart and took the PCB out so that nothing was touching the contacts, but it is still doing it. I'm going to use a magnifying glass and a multimeter to check for shorts when I get home, but is it possible that the encoder chip (or whatever it's called) is hosed? I hope it isn't because I would really like to be able to use this controller. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Solved the problem. The contacts under the 2-6 button switch were dirty, and the controller acts as I described when you play 2-button games in 6-button mode. So I'm just posting this in case anyone else has the same problem and finds this thread after searching the forums. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
