Turbo Express/PC-Engine GT Replacement Controller Board Coming Soon!!
turbokon:
Hey all, we all know the controller boards suffer from bad carbon traces causing the buttons and/or turbo functionality not to work. In some cases, the main custom IC are failing. In most cases, the bad carbon traces can be fixed by soldering a jumping wire or two but sometime you’re need to fix the traces where the buttons makes contacts and that can be tricky. Also there is no commercially available IC that fits the footprint of the custom IC. To combat this issues, thesteve and I are working on a replacements controller board that will also incorporated components that will make it easy to add the external controller mod if one so chooses.
These are now available to order on the website at www.tg16pcemods.com. Price is $40 plus shipping. Get a $10 discount if you send in your stock board.
Note, comlink and lcd shutoff for power saving feature will not work unless OEM Chip is used instead. This will ship assembled with alternate replacement chips.
There is also an optional player 1 external controller port mod kit (available soon).

Here is what the replacement controller board looks like. This one is pictured using the custom IC pulled from a bad stock board. These will shipped out with the two commercially available IC that function the same as the stock IC except with the comlink disabled. Has diodes for the ext. controller mod and a spot to solder to on the back for switchless region mod. Will also have a jst connector for a plug in for the ext. controller port.
