Commodore CD 1200 Trackball for CDTV help needed
Hi all
I have just purchased a Commodore CDTV and with it came a CD Trackball controller now it works fine plugged in with its cable but I cant seem to get it to work on batteries. Is there something I am doing wrong or is it a common issue that can be fixed. Many thanks in advance. |

Hi
Yes the normal controller works fine so the Ir is working on the cdtv I have tried the camera trick and there is nothing coming from the Ir of the rollerball controller. |

I dont know the ins of that controller because they so rare so i would open her up and post some picture of the controller board so the experts can point out if any capps need replacing.
I am also assuming you have checked the battery area for corrosion. |
