I just got an Intellivision through an auction and one of the controllers was not functioning.
No problem, I took apart the console and found out the wires were ripped from the contact points (sorry, don't know the proper nomenclature). I'm talking about the metal/silver things that are encased in the green plastic (which in turn plugs into the circuit board).
No big deal, I stripped the wire a bit to get fresh new intact wires for each color.
Here's the problem... I don't have the right tool to re-insert the wires/thread them in through the tight space between the metal contact points.
What tool do I need to buy? where can I get it? any other tips on rebuilding intellivision controllers?
Thanks.
