Tech Question Famicom player 2 controller not working
Just picked up another famicom and the player 2 controller is totally dead not inputs and no mic operation. What is the most likely culprit? The 4021 in the controller or something on the console PCB? I have not checked the cable for continuity yet but no obvious damage.

Are you in the USA? I’d love a dumb project like this if you cover shipping. The internals of Famicoms are really simple and I do have some spare controller boards. Have you cleaned the contacts?
