Xbox 360 Wired Controller damaged through hole
« on: April 13, 2021, 01:03:51 PM »
I have a damaged through hole on the right pin (with the board showing the solder connections) of the left joystick's x-axis potentiometer.  I saw the other post that says to connect it to TP7, but there is no TP7 on this board that I can find.  I can't post a picture because it says the uploader is full.  Where should I reroute the connection to?

That's the CL version board, it's TP5 not TP7. It's just the AN+ for that POT. Solder a wire to that pin there, then follow the trace there and solder the other end to the top of the 3 pins for the other POT.

Screwing up is one of the best learning tools, so long as the only thing you're not learning is how to screw up.

Thanks so much! What does AN stand for? Just trying to learn. I tried googling it and didn't come up with anything.

AN+ is just what I named the Analog voltage rail. https://acidmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,34541.0.html
