|
|
I've had my RedOctane Metal Pad for almost 2 years now, and haven't used it in about 6 months. Up to that point I have had no problems with it...until now. I recently got back into DDR, so I pulled out my pad and cranked up ITG and noticed that I was not able to scroll down using the down button, and then when I started a song, sure enough, the down arrow was not responding.
I took the button off, cleaned the contacts and the aluminum underside of the button and it still is not responding.
Help please!! |

Anyone have any ideas? Has no one seen this problem before? |

Did you check to see that the wires were connected and not like split or torn or something? _________________

I took the button off and I don't see any wires. How do I check to make sure the wires are making a good connection? Pics would be helpful. |

Thanks, I'll try that.
I really hope it doesn't require soldering, because I have no idea how to do that. |
