iesposta Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 On my four switch, the joystick connector pin was cracked between outside pin and the inside solder connection. I couldn't really see it until I desoldered the connector. All the pins were visible from the outside, but one paddle controller wouldn't work. It sounds like you have the same problem.
