Arcade Buttons stop working when i re attach back plate
Ok…
So it’s taken about three days of my life to try and do this arcade mod… and i sort of want to kill myself…
So all the buttons seem to be working now, did the FW upgrade to 1.3, imported latest tsi.
Basically, when I reattach the back plate to the vci, the buttons stop working.
With the back plate off when i test the buttons they all work fine, super responsive etc.
Could it be the direction of the diodes are wrong? that’s the only thing i can think of…
Any help greatly appreciated

Found a pretty ghetto solution… i lined the inside of back plate with newspaper. seems to have solved it.
Odd though cause all the wires were well soldered and I used shrink wrap…
anyway, am actually starting to have a proper go and loving the arcade buttons and SE mapping.
Hopefully no more issues…
Sounds like the buttons are touching the case when you put it on and shorting out.
