I checked the voltage. I am getting 4.60 when multimeter is on the hori pcb. I then checked it from the controller port of the AES itself and 4.60. I then checked each button on the hori pcb and I get 3.10. I have 2 power supplies one is 5w 3A and the other 5w 2.5A. One of them I purchased from retro game supply. I did see about the triad psu's but I am unsure where to go from here at the moment. My stick is still apart so if I decided to get the buttons, I can do it in one shot. I wish they sold buttons with the microswitch that fit this style of stick. But yeah, those are my findings. Any advice?
I tried to open the controller port shell on the hori but it was near impossible. I was curious to see if there was any oxidation inside. I have a similar issue with a virtual boy I bought recently. I decided to risk it and buy new seimitsu buttons and hopefully get something working. If not, once I refurbish it, I may just resell it and recoup the costs a bit.
