    Default Saturn Contoller, start button not responding

    Picked up a Saturn controller today and everything works fine... except the start button. It's not the system as other controllers work fine. Doesn't seem to be any corrosion, all joints look solid, and the cord is fine.

    Is there any common thing could cause this?

    Maybe the membrane is shot? Or perhaps a trace is broken but isn't visibly so.
    I fix things. You name it, I'll work on it. Want something modded? Recapped?

    Membrane seems okay. Suppose I could pull another one out to test it to be sure just in case it's not something visible.

    If it's not something visible on the trace, then it's probably just worth pitching.

    If it isn't visible you check and if there is a break a quick 30AWG wire job will fix it.

    Otherwise send it to me, I'll take it off your hands if you're just binning it.
