huddy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 ok a mate bought a brand new hand controller from kudos - for his sr20det - hand controller came - plugged it in and it froze on the apexi logo. wrong controller - so sent it back and got another one from somewhere else. finally came today (second hand unit) - plugged it in and now there is nothing - no freezing, no light up, no picture or writing. nothing. it was supposedly to suit a sr20det. if any hand controller is plugged in i was under the impression that even if it is incorrect, it will still start up and then freeze on the apexi logo????? hand controller number is FCCNT 9805 - 0023 BUT!!!!! - i plugged it into my ap engineering rb20det power fc - and it lights up and i can view everything and it works perfectly!!! My mates SR power FC serial no. is PFC SR202R 9812-033 . this was also bought second hand. And my ap engineering power fc is brand new from box about 2months. So i was under the impression that brand new units and older units were not compatible with the older handcontrollers??? so wtf??? anyone got any ideas on this situation - as to why the hand controller isnt even lighting up and freezing with this one thanks -Matt Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150906-power-fc-handcontroller-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

raz0r$harP.UK Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 According to Paul's FAQ, Apexi product chart says that for an SR20, compatible FC Commanders have a serial FCC NT (1st gen) or FCC FN or FCC3 (later releases). So it looks like your mate has the PFC that requires a FCC FN or FCC3 serial FC Commander.

huddy Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 according to http://www.apexera.co.jp/carlife/pro_apexi...ics/linup2.html that is the right model commander for the year and type of SR. but it doesnt even load up and freeze, and works perfect on my rb20det ap power FC.

paulr33 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 let me know once you sort it out, will update the faq if something is wrong if its not even powering up some else is bogus. if the hand controller is wrong it fails post diag and locks at the apexi logo. open the hand controller and see if its burnt or smells burnt. i suspect its dead or something else is busted.

paulr33 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 well thats all it is worth to me, i will pull it apart and salvage the screen and anything else, assuming they arent toast. try and return it back to the supplier as DOA and get your money back, if not throw it in the bin Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150906-power-fc-handcontroller-problem/#findComment-2811820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
1400r Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 (edited) sorry guys the HC is fine its the pfc thats stuffed i.e water damaged it doesnt seem to want to power up the HC although the PFC still seems to run the car fine for now and the HC runs fibe on Huddys FC Edited January 11, 2007 by 1400r Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150906-power-fc-handcontroller-problem/#findComment-2813362 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulr33 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 bit odd, maybe the pfc socket for the hand controller is toast? where is the "water damage" idea coming from? when u open up the PFC do you see any burnt or damaged stuff? does it smell? check the pins running to the PS2 socket for the hand controller Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150906-power-fc-handcontroller-problem/#findComment-2813458 Share on other sites More sharing options...
huddy Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 hey ryan post a pic up ! the water damaged seemed to off come in through the plugs for the handcontroller (from memory) it is just odd that with another hand controller that 1400r had before it DID load up and freeze on the logo, now with this one - it does nothing (BUT works perfect on my rb20 AP PFC) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150906-power-fc-handcontroller-problem/#findComment-2814649 Share on other sites More sharing options...
