well try contacting the seller and ask them for a replacement control box. If you change that, it should work, as the control box is like the brain of a metal dance pad. It's the little box with 2 buttons (start/select) on it. It's either that or the panel wirings arent responding well. I'm guessing from what u say, that when you step on one arrow and another one registers, it's probably the box mixing up step signals

I also purchased the bluespark pad- http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8214213803

It arrived today and I tested it out for xbox, but it doesnt seem to work. The arrows light up on the pad but nothing happens. I plugged it in for ps2 and it worked. Does this sound like a control box problem too?

i don't know too much for sure about the first issue, but your issue about the xbox not working is definatly a control box issue. other dance pads also had a similar issue where it worked perfectly for PS2 consoles but didn't work or had erros with Xbox.

top boxes are easy to change out(or worst case) cheap to buy. but you should be able to get a new top box from your reseller.

regarding rycexboi, just remembered, you should probobly hit up that ebay seller quick; you should have more sway with them cause they are responsible for getting you a working product. but if its been awhile then hit up cypher.

I contacted the seller and they got back to me and said they will be sending a ps2-xbox converter. I think I remember hearing something about delays when you use converters, is this true?
