yeah where are these PCB boards?
I cant find them either… where to buy
I also need this board. The little button stopped popping back up.
In my device the plastic parts under the metal carrier broke. It has a sort of lever action that I'm pretty sure was intended to break.
It would be no good to reassemble it with baking soda and super glue. Aside from buying a scrap controller there doesn't appear to be a way to return it to original.
Any help appreciated.
