| - | If your controller has places for R1 and R2, all you need to do is solder a resistor between the two solder pads in each place, a 1.2k resistor at R1 and a 3k resistor at R2. the resistors that are meant to go there are very small physically (surface mount), but without the propper tools it is difficult to solder these if you can even buy them. any resistor will do the job so long as it has the correct value, 1/8 watt resistors might be better as they are smaller physically, but a regular 1/4 or 1/2 watt resistor will do fine if it fits and doesnt interfere with the buttons at all. | + | |

| If you find it too difficult to solder the resistors directly to these points, you may run wires from them and put the resistors anywhere you like inside the controller, so long as they are fixed down with something like electrical tape or hot glue, and will not move about. | If you find it too difficult to solder the resistors directly to these points, you may run wires from them and put the resistors anywhere you like inside the controller, so long as they are fixed down with something like electrical tape or hot glue, and will not move about. | ||
