SNES controller port.

Post by neorichieb1971 »

I have to reset my SNES a few times to get the controller to work. Its not the controller because I have about 8 of them to choose from. The console looks mint.

Sometimes by putting a different game in, makes it suddenly work. So does anyone know if the cartridge slot has anything to do with the controller port?

When it works it works, when it don't it don't!

Mind you, if I don't beat DKC soon the pads going out the window anyway :lol:

Tips would be appreciated.

Open it up and follow the ribbon cable that connects to the controller board. Make sure that it is pushed into the recepticle on the main board securely.

Next time I find the screw bit in my tons of crap I'll take a look. Right now I can get it working one time in three.
