How hard it is to diagnose, repair/fix this issue?


Thanks!
Pin 6 is the fire button on C= CD32 Game Pad. https://www.retronicdesign.com/en/sp...-cd32-gamepad/

Looking at the Schematics for A4KT, they match, so it should work.

Maybe one of the CIA Chips is dodgey, but Capacitors can also cause issues.

Due to age of the A4KT & the lack of use it's had, this does not mean everything is 100%. Age will dry up the Capacitors so they don't function as they should.

Fully appreciate your Bargin buy, but replacing Capacitors on these old Amiga Boards is a "Must Do" thing. If you're dedicated to preserving this board & considering the price paid, I'd be investing on a Full Recap to all component boards that make up the A4KT as a whole.
