Title: Zaxxon Joystick Post by: NintendoCollector on December 27, 2013, 10:53:04 am Hey guys so while working on my new Zaxxon machine something I've realized is the joystick is a tad bit 'sticky' (no, not literally haha). It doesn't like to return back in its original center position very well. I know its old and has years of use but I was wondering if there are any tips on cleaning or repairing it to make it more crisp? I can post pictures if needed! Thanks guys for helping a n00b out!

Post a picture of the joystick. I'm guessing that has a wick style joystick originally like Frogger and other Segas. You can replace the grommet if so. game grommets.com |
