Jammed button on AES arcade stick, any help?

moonwhistle · Sep 3, 2004

The "B" button on my AES arcade stick (original version) keeping activating even when I'm not pressing it.

I opened the base and took a look around, removed and replaced buttons, but couldn't see anything obviously wrong.

I've heard that these sticks are pretty easy to fix, any ideas on what on I should be doing?

Many thanks.

Im not sure exactly what type of push to make switch is used in those sticks.
Asumming the button itself is not fouling up against something.
With reasonable soldering skills you should be able to take the D switch out and swap with the faulty B switch. Then most games are playable (not fighting games of course)
This will do untill we can identify exactly what switch is required as a replacement.
With 30 odd carts I do not have one that uses D for game play, not into fighters
:cool:

Thanks for the advice but I would like to get the stick fully functional as I play alot of games where the D button is needed. Any idea what kind of button switches these sticks use?

Off topic but I thought this was funny as I have 22 Neo games... every single one is a fighter!
