Wiring Sanwa JLF to Fighting Stick 3 PCB

[MajorZ]

A very precise question I realise but it seems like the srk forums are undergoing an upgrade and I can't ask on there

I'm looking for the correct way to wire the connections from the sanwa jlf harness to the pcb of the hori fighting stick 3

Here is a photo of how it's done on the hori wii fighting stick:



Going from top to bottom, Green, Black, Red, SKIP, SKIP, Yellow, SKIP, Orange.

I've done this on the fs3 pcb and the ps3 and i'm getting nothing but up constantly, with diagonal right negating it.

Help (if you can!) would be much much appreciated!

Well if you're getting one direction constantly then you bridged the up and ground connection so you'll have to desolder. Secondly, if you can "negate it" then you probably have the wires soldered in the wrong manner so that right is acting as your ground so nothing else works except right (and of course up which you bridged).

In theory, you should only be wiring up every other connection on your board since they are paired with signal and ground. So you want your 4 signals and then only one ground. I can't tell you specifically which ones are which since I don't remember and also it depends on the orietation of your joystick.

That's got to be the worst soldering job I've ever seen

Thanks, I managed by grounding first and then testing for each signal then soldering.

Works great
