Stephen g Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Need a little advise guys, iv done a tempest 2000 rotary mode, everything works well, apart from buttons B & C dont work unless i press both together. I guess iv got a trace or solder touching each other. But doesn't look like it. Its hard to make out what the correct solder point is on my diagram for B & C so im asking kindly can anyone point me in the direction of a clear picture of the jaguar circuit board points (im using the grey button controller).. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+af0l Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) I just made some a couple of weeks ago, I can take the grey one apart (did them both) when I get home... Edited March 24, 2017 by af0l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 This is the best place to solder on the newer jag controllers(the ones with the skinnier cord). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Make sure you get a magnifying glass and look at the solder points. You can use a dentist's pick to scrap between the solder points. EDIT: looks like that is the black button one, I will see if I have a good picture for the gray ones.

+af0l Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Here's mine. Overcooked it a bit, but works well. Use a multimeter to make sure there are no contacts between the points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen g Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Thanks guys, I'll open her up again later and desolder and start again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicolaspersijn Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I had The same problem when I try to use the solder points as well. That's why I only use the wires connecting the two separate circuit boards. I just remove the covering of the wires a little and connect the rotary leads there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicolaspersijn Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I'm actually building a duo front mounted dial version with switch for a customer this weekend. I'll snap a pic before I close it up and post it here. Probably tomorrow morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicolaspersijn Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Ok, so here are a couple pics. One is of the pcbs with the correct connecting wires exposed for ground, left and right; in order from left to right. In other words 1,2 &12. The same as the solder points that would have been used. The other pic is of the rotary/switch assembly attached. Ground from the rotary and left/right from the rotary, to the switch then to the correct wires. Hope these help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMG_1528.JPG IMG_1529.JPG Wow thanks, how easy is that, you don't even need to solder just use crimps.. Is this the same for the black keyed joypads ?

Stephen g Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 Can I ask what switchs do you use would any on off switch work ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+af0l Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Nope, you need a DPDT switch, so it can switch both lines at once. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
