Polish.Gasoline Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hi,Just wondering how to fix this wire on a driving controller, so it is permanently attached. I'm new to this, do I solder the bottom on?Which screws hold the outer casing of a light sixer? So it can hold together.Which screws hold on to an original atari 2600 joystick so I can purchase them? Would a s-video mod be worth it on either console? Is just composite good enough? Just curious. I have done neither on any console before but it would be nice to know before I get my hands dirty. I was thinking of putting a pause button on both regardless. The only thing I have a problem with the jr. is that it has rainbow banding on the rf signal would either remedy this? How do you suggest I take apart a jr.? Do I just take a spludger to the back of it? I ordered so metal spludgers from ebay since no where in my city could I find them. I need to take it apart to fix the "on" light. I'm repairing a "deal" i got on kijiji. It really could be worse but some advice would be awesome. The consoles internals are working correctly so far with a solder job on the light sixer and cleaning of an additional console I got (A jr.). All that was needed on the jr. was to clean the sockets (cartridge and video). I got a large package of controllers that have been cleaned for the most part. I just got some paddles to do and a controller to put screws in. I know this is a lot of questions but hopefully someone can answer them. Thanks AtariAge.
