That is a known problem on the Xbox 360 TE.
The Triggers will go out.
There is no fix.
Any ideas?
Ok guys… I know I must sound like a noob, but I guess my google-fu and SRK lurking abilities are not up to par.
But I cant seem to find any good Step by Step (Aka Idiots guide) for setting up a ChImp SMD dual modding for some madkatz sticks.
I see tons of stuff for the regular Chimp, but nothing much for SMD.
Does anyone have any videos or could direct me to an idiots guide to this supposed easiest dual mod out there?
Again, sorry if its out there and im too much of a noob to find it… But i didnt see anything really too helpful for the SMD.
Red wires are in the right places. Im sure for that. The problem is black GND-wires. Can’t i just desolder all GND wires except one, and chain every button?
what you are explaining still sounds like you wired it backwards… if the buttons are all doing one action no matter what button you pressed you wired it wrong… ground can come from one spot or twenty its just ground. your signal line is the one you need to look at. take a pic of it so we can confirm…
its pretty much the exact same
The only difference is that the components are SMD instead of PTH and there are some easier points for USB input and outputs in the screw terminals
you dual mod it the exact same way
Actually no all buttons make same thing. most of them. I’ll get the stick next weekend then i can check it with more attention.
hey guys, I’ve got a round 2 TE.
The other day I dropped it(not a big drop, just a small one).
Seemed fine.
But I’ve been having problems with the joystick lately. it’s like sometimes the game doesn’t detect when I’m holding it on position 3 6 and 9.
Sometimes there’s no problem at all.
Is there something wrong with the joystick?
So what I gather from what you’re saying is that all the buttons register one input for all 6 button presses?
Joe is right, you have definitely wired up the ground and the signals backwards, however you seem entirely confident that you have done it properly.
Joe is right saying that you have the ground and signals backwards since the logic follows like so
Red is your signal, which is wired individually to each of the face buttons. These lines are all individual and link to one side of the button
Ground is black, which is wired from one point and linked to each and every line. These lines originate from one point and connect to each other and link to the other side of the button.
When this is backwards, you see that all the buttons are individually wired to one ground point, and you have one signal point daisy chained throughout your buttons. This would result in the scenario which you are experiencing.
I never ever trust diagrams anymore because I have bad experiences. Nothing is better than looking at the board and finding out yourself.
you probably knocked the harness loose a bit, open it up and push it back in?
wheres a good place in london to get a laminate label for customising the art on my SE stick?
I just made a stick from scratch with a paewang pcb. ive got the turbo set with select but unfortunately I only have the two buttons and I need home as well. Wouldn’t I be able to wire a jumper between start select and home for home to work when I press them both or would that just out home on start and select with it?
Kuya_Joe is right.
If you connect Home to Select and Start, any time you press one of those buttons, all would activate.
You press Select, then Select and Start and Home will happen.
You press Start, then Select and Start and Home will happen.
And of course, you have Turbo tied to Select also.
You press Select, then Turbo and Select and Start and Home will happen.
You press Start, then Turbo and Select and Start and Home will happening.
To do Select + Start = Home, you do this.

I have a noob question:
I have a Hori Real Arcade Pro.vx Sa (Xbox 360) and was wondering if anybody knows if it’s easy to put some custom artwork on it and change the buttons out. I have a TE stick on my PS3 and that was dead easy to do, but I haven’t read / found anything about the Hori stick and its ease of customization.
For reference (as Hori has crazy product names) my stick is this one:
Thanks!
If you want to change the buttons. Just unscrew the bottom panel. If you want a new button layout or plexi check out this thread>Project: LLC Metal Replacement Panels Round 9 Stainless Steel
so. . . on wiring up FGW LED controller: One lead from my button goes to signal on the PCB, the other goes to x_in on the FGW, the corresponding out goes to the positive lead on the LED and the negative lead goes to ground… right?
Yup.
I’m getting an Eightarc Fusion and I’d like to switch out the buttons.
I THINK I’m going to roll with Seimetsu because I don’t like how sensitive Sanwa buttons are.
Anyone have any experience with Seimetsu?
Also, what ‘type’ of buttons should I get (this goes for both Sei and Sanwa, in case I change my mind)? I don’t know what the hell OBCS and PS-14-KN mean.
Finally, does the size of the buttons matter?
Sorry if these questions are mundane, I just don’t want to waste my money or anything. I want to get everything right the first time.
Siemitsus have a stiffer micro switch… I like em…as far as type…just make sure they are 30mm… Pick the ones you like…thats it…
One last question about my stick (pictured above). What type of button layout is it? Astrocity? Vewlix? I’m not sure about this.
Vewlix
