So a client gave me this to clean and fix. It had coffee spilled on it. He also wanted RF installed. When I first seen the controller I knew it was launch cause its transparent black and not dual shock.
I finally got done testing after cleaning and decided to start modding it. Well after closer inspection this is what I found. There appears to be a stock home led solder spot. with clear home rubber and clear button. No led installed. There is constant 2v there, and the ground is switched. But I cant turn the ground on, so I will be using this as my RF display.
Also notice the sixaxis is separate and not built into the board. A disabled gamer was asking about modding the sixaxis to a analog stick. I will be looking into this.
So here are some pics.
here it is installed. Ijumped the player 1 led ground to the gound on the home led. This is until i figure out the propper resistance then i will add a resitor off the ground on j5 (above right stick) to the trace hole spot next to the j5 for the home led ground.
Found the propper resistor its 100ohm. for red 0603
here is actlikes 3mode installed .(in the vid i say topfire but ment actlikes.) I ran a resistor(100ohm) of the spot that was missing a resistor for ground.
here is the video before assembly.
