Fredoias Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Does the s-type controller have a replaceable fuse. I bought on for parts but it seems in better condition that the one I was planning to repair. I primarily bought it for the cord so I could replace the cord on my original that lost a fight with my wife's vacuum cleaner. The cord continuity is good and the breakaway test good on my other controllers. I was hoping there was a fuse that may save it's life. I looked at the pcb under a magnifying glass and see no cold solder joints, but I will reflow them any ways if the controller can be salvaged. If it is dead I will salvage the cord as originally planned. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredoias Posted August 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I ended up salvaging the cord and analog sticks on it. No matter what I tried it would not work. It gave its life to save 2 of its brothers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought some lots of broken controllers and I have a few of these and haven't checked for fuses. One I dropped and no power after = I'm actually working on some now. I will let you know if I figure these out. Most usually need a cord, breakaway cable or clean off liquid damage if any. Not these dead ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredoias Posted August 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) Thanks. I checked the caps and looked for a missing resistors and anything else that may have given up the ghost. I just thought I was missing something simple. I do have a nice shell if I get something crappy in the future.
