Hello! I'm in the process of building my metal pad and I will soon need to solder the wires to the controller. Here r some pics

Could someone tell me where I will need to solder the ground wires to on this controller? I think I know where to solder the simultaneous arrows, x, start, and select buttons to. But it'd be nice if someone could help me for my soldering points on this particular controller. Thanx

That link requires a MySpace account in order to view the pic. Seeing as how I'm not a pedophile, I don't use MySpace, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help.

ROFL. he has a private account so even us pedos can't view the pic unless we become his friend

Mark, right click on the pics and choose "Copy Image Location" and just paste the links here, I think that will let anybody view them even without an account.

Maybe this will help also: http://www.angelfire.com/d20/ddrhomepad/closepcb.jpg

I got most of it mapped, but I cant figure out from the blurry picture which side of the start/select buttons are live and which are ground.

I can tell you that the wire to the left of each of the arrow button sensors is connected to ground
