What type of replacement cable do I need? Where can I purchase it?

Tom Tidbury -

Along with Tom, I would also like to know where I can get replacement parts for this joystick. I’ve been searching for a while now and can’t seem to find any spare parts for this joystick.

Clayton Noyes -

Savez-vous où l'on peut trouver cette pièce à l’achat ou à la récupération?

Hey! @thetechchild I had a similar issue, couldn't find replacement parts after my cat chewed on the cable.. So I found an alternate solution, I bought some of these cables, some heat shrink tubing, and replaced the cable like this. Now I can detach a male to male USB A cable to the joystick and replace the cheap cable if it ever gets damaged again! Make sure to plug the cables into the pin connector in the exact same way that the original cable was plugged in: Green, White, Red, thin Black, thicker Black (left to right as shown in the images I linked above). I think I could have gotten a JST XH plug to better connect it, but doing the pins directly seems to be working fine for now. I'm not entirely sure if that's the correct plug, but from my research it looks like it.

William McCall -

Sadly same issue, tried all the linked products, looks like the design of the cables have changed. I cant get it to work even with the JST plug. Thanks for giving me a little hope though!

Dylan Brasier (Grim) -

Hey Dylan! I'm sorry yeah it seems like those connections don't work as expected - I tried them as well :( The joystick is still holding up with my original solution - perhaps that'll work well for you too! Good luck :)
