Watch the first 2 minutes of this video if you are having issues with your X-Axis being reversed when completing my original tutorial here: https://youtu.be/YcGcffjwglc
**X-AXIS TROUBLESHOOTING - There are some stock yokes that are wired differently for the X-Axis potentiometer. Pay close attention to my yoke wire diagram as my yoke has the Red wire on top, Brown in the middle, and Black on the bottom. In this case, Red=Ground, Brown=Right, Black=Left. If your yoke is wired with Black on top, Brown in the middle, and Red on the bottom, you'll need to swap the wires to Black=Ground, Brown=Right, Red=Left
Looks almost 50% chance of being either way.. Here's my running counter of how many yokes I've modded that have Red vs Black as the ground for the X-Axis pot. no issues with Y-axis pot so far:
Red as Ground: 8
Black as Ground: 8
The rest of this guide is some older footage going over how to cleanly wired up your yoke for a Basic mod with 4 buttons, or a Premium mod with several square buttons.
