How to repair right throttle buttons on TM Warthog throttle?


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I've got 2 each of the TM Warthog stick and throttle; 1 brick and 1 working, more or less.  I've been canibalizing the bricks to get the working ones up to snuff.  On the working throttle, though, all but 1 button on the right throttle isn't working.  The one that does work only has the POV down portion working.  I was hoping for some input on the best way to go about troubleshooting and repairing this.  Thanks!

Chances are you have a broken common wire. To the best of my knowledge the common should be daisy chained around all of the switches, grab a multimeter set to continuity and chase the beep around till you get a consistent connection across all the commons.

I think that the POV switches are simply tact switches built into a housing so easy to replace an individual switch if it's failed.
