Saitek X-65F non functional stick.

[Carde]

Not sure if this is the right place, not sure, but I am just trying to find some help

 

 

Anyhow on to the issue, I already put this on the HOTAS reddit, but nothing so far so I thought I drop it down here as well:

 

I have 3 of these HOTAS setups, 2 of which have faulty sticks which act exactly the same, as in they have power, but don't register any movement or button presses. (1 of the throttles also has a broken cable. yay me :P).

 

Here is an overview of the circuit board from 1 of the sticks I have been measuring trying to figure out what is wrong:

 

 

So yeah does anyone have an experience fixing these rare units or in general has an idea at what else I can look at or how to fix this issue? I really would like to get them back to working order as they are rare enough as is.

Any help is surely appreciated.
