How to: Repair Broken Sanwa JLF Joystick directions
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- This video demonstrates how to repair bad inputs in the Sanwa JLF. Sometimes only a single direction will break down, and you may be tempted to replace the whole joystick.
However, a new JLF joystick can run about $22 versus simply replacing the switch for only $3.
This repair requires basic soldering, and is perfect for a first soldering project.

You do such a great job informing us. Yours points are great and I don't have any questions after your vids. Great job man!
Excellent video! I'm thinking about buying a spare JLF PCB and replace the microswitches with better ones, with the hinges. It doesn't seem that hard to do, and if I mess it up, it's just a spare PCB. Thanks!
Very good tutorial. I habe a question: My Joystick Sanwa is going left all the time. I was surprised. It happened after a period of time without using it. Have you ever seen this? Any adivices?
thank you for this i love to know all about arcade sticks and repairing it, i had hori rap 3 sa kai when i recieved it the up-forward direction was messy it always register up instead up+forward i threw it in closet and never used it since... i might try this hope it will fix mine
You should have used a larger solder tip as it would have heated faster and you would have been able to suck it off faster thus reducing the risk of damaging the PCB.
Can I use an older switch (UP) and use it on another board for a different direction?
Jezz, 11yo video. Gotta try my luck anyway: are there a way to solder regular switches onto the JLF's PCB (TP-MA)?
Nice, thanks for demonstrating. My stick is 3 months old so Im really desapointed that it's allready having problems. Whats hapening is that the diagonal superior right direction is not responding perfecly. Sometimes it just jump up. Do you think in this cases I need to replace the switch it any way or what can it be?
i have a namco joy stick from 1996 and still works
There is enough clearance to solder the switch back to the PCB while sandwhiched between the JLF body and square gate. This ensures that the switch is perfectly aligned every time.
Tricky though! Good tip.
I already have an oversized actuator, does anyone know if you can get a larger one OR re-solder these DIPS to get a little lower/closer to the middle?
Is this video still relevant to the current sanwa models?
another informative vid. good stuff. for Tech Talk. keep em up.
I recently bought a new joystick altogether, because the inputs wouldn't register consistently. Sometimes I would hear the click and get nothing unless I pushed even harder. After a few months of use, it's happening again! I didn't even use it much but I'm starting to think it's maybe cos of how I play - or the stick model is off? It's frustrating and costly honestly. I'm on an Atrox for Xbox One. Anyone experience something familiar?
I had this problem on my new samwa joystick when inputting forward forward down in quick sequence. The down button will stop working for a period of time or until i pressed db or df. I can hear clicking noises, but the input is not registered, have you found the fix?
Hi, after no playing a long time, i start my PS3 and find all 4 directions not working ._.
Is it possible that all 4 parts are broken or do you think it's a nother problem ?
Rest of buttons are working fine. I also didn't notice any problem on the previous session.
Hi, I have a quick question, All four corners of my SF4 TE have become completely unresponsive. With this being said should i just replace the whole joystick with a new one?
I have same problem and i can't figure if all 4 switches are dead or if the whole stick is dead ;_;
i ended up just replacing the joystick itself and it still works just fine now
good work! thanks!
Hi your new subscriber, Can you please tell me how to fix my Dobe fighting stick which is working in undesirable way for Instance Clutch or block is (B) = which execute as D(down) (Block), therefore everything has changed like qcf is dfu(down forward up) which is useless how can I play in this illogical manner. Please help.
dude your voice is really awesome XD
I got one of my switchs broke. Would it be convinient to buy a switch from any other brand in any electric shop? I'm in Mexico, so, I don't think they have Sanwa switches avaliable.

why not just buy a new PCB, don't they cost like $15? why bother doing this when it's much easier to buy a new PCB and pop it back in your stick?
This is much cheaper and doesn't take much time if you're decent at soldering.
It's unlucky this video is not well indicized and you will find crappy videos try to searching this one.
awesome
