Numb_Thumb Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 I'm having problems with my 4 port atari and I was wondering if someone could help. When I plug in the controller all the buttons work except for the # button, and I've opened it up and cleaned the contacts in the controller. When I plug it into my 2 port all the buttons work perfectly. Does anyone know how I can fix this? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calamari Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Maybe he used his other thumb calamari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Based on the fact it works on a 2 port but didn't on a 4 port tells me that either the joystick connectors on the 4 port were dirty and hit them with a toothbrush and alcohol or did that and slightly reformed the pins a bit to make better contact with the controller plug. Still maybe he played with the pot adjustment to adjust the sensitivity of his 5200 reading the joystick controls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
