Atari 5200 controller repair Part 2 - replacing the flex circuit

This video's an adjunct to my main Atari 5200 video. Like most of you, my 5200 controllers broke just sitting on a shelf. I made part 1 of this 2-part series in order to clean and deoxidize the contacts, and in many cases that does fix the problem. In mine, the flex circuits were too far gone and it became easier to just replace them. (It's not exactly expensive to do so.) In this video, I show you how to just replace your flex circuit if deoxidizing them doesn't do the trick. Check out part 1 of this 2-part series first, which in most cases will be enough: https://youtu.be/BmlnSuY-30o Watch my main video about the 5200: https://youtu.be/dFUc8hEENZ8 Here's Best Electronics if you want to order a flex circuit: http://www.best-electronics-ca.com/ Here's a link to buy Deoxit D5, which I recommend for a bunch of different projects including this one: http://amzn.to/2pu0Ych Subscribe to my channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/ModernClassic?sub_confirmation=1 Support me on Patreon!: http://www.patreon.com/modernclassic Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/modernclassicchannel/ And on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/modernclassicyt
