Hi Dale!

Hmm.. this is new! Could you share some pictures regarding this (as how it is soldered)? Looks like it’s shorting your motherboard… if everything is soldered correctly, I advise to replace them and see if that solves the issue.

Hmm weird. The only thing I can think of that it’s shorting… must be motherboard related, if the replacement part is giving the same fault.

Started working after a few resolders, until you press the triggers and the controller vibrates then it shuts down . Then it starts back up with the smaller motor running slowly then it has the start up vibrations and runs fine until you touch the triggers again . Still working on them I've got 3 doing the same,its in the joystick pcb somewhere as I tried them in a working controller and it reduces that one to the same thx
