Introduzione

If the microswitches in your Mayflash Arcade Stick F300 are broken or damaged, use this guide to replace them.

Each direction (up, down, left, right) in the joystick corresponds to a microswitch. When the joystick is moved, it physically presses the associated microswitch, closing its circuit and signaling to the console the direction.

Because each microswitch corresponds to a different direction, make sure you are replacing the correct microswitch, and be careful to keep track of the wires to ensure everything is reconnected properly.
