I am looking for some guidance on fixing the guns on a Revolution-X game. I was able to repair all of the other issues with the game, but neither gun fully works.
- Gun 1 (left) - All buttons work, but the left and right motion isn't working. In diagnostics mode I can see the X/Y axis numbers move the full range for up/down, but left/right only moves about 10 (not always the same 10). In game play the gun sight is on the far left hand side of the screen. I didn't open up the gun or base, but I am wondering if the pot (I am assuming it has pots like Operation Wolf or the like) is just loose.
The springs are also gone or broken.
- Gun 2 (right) - All buttons work, but neither left/right or up/down respond at all. In diagnotics mode the X/Y for both rapidly change all up and down the range without me touching anything or the gun moving. I don't know what to think there, unless it is a logic issue and the game doesn't know what to think or how to measure where either x/y is. Again, this applies to both up/down and left/right. The springs are also gone or broken.
I don't think it is an optic issue, at least for the left gun, since during game play it does flash and destroy targets (as long as they are on the far left hand side of the screen).
Any help is appreciated.
