: So I should take off that black square thing that has those circles for the Directional buttons?
In the picture MVC-906F, you can see the 5 wires lined up on the left side of the picture. That is where I made the d-pad connections.
: Also, which color wire did you use for earth on your pics? I am just trying to work out which points on the PCB I should use as earth.
By looking at my pictures, it appears I used the white for the ground. One thing I do remember is that all of the buttons had their own ground except for four which shared a ground between pairs. 4 buttons = 2 grounds between them.
From the pic MVC-911F, it appears that the shared grounds are TP16 & TP53.
: Or would you be able to (big ask) tell me which points are earth and which are b1, up, dpwn, etc, by going by the TPxx marks on the PCBS?
Sorry, I can't help with that. The controller is long gone, so I only have the pics to go by. Like I wrote above, it looks like white was ground, so that should give you a good start. Let me know if I can try to remember anything else for you. ;)
