| I have not fixed too many controllers.
Have one that will not power on. Does get power from battery to board, I do see voltage at various points on the board. What should I be looking for? | |

| Do the springs heat up? I've had a no power problem after soldering a rapid fire mod on them and the batteries were heating up the springs. I didn't realise and they melted onto the plastic  I de-soldered and re-soldered everything and it was ok. Make sure all the components are in good shape and there are no shorts or solder splashes. | |

| No other suggestions. Is there a pattern of the components which give you power ? | |
