Subject: Re: Dw 8000 joystick parts

i'm looking at the joystick from a dw6000, i assume its the same.
there are 2 10k pots, with 1 spring inside each.
its easy to remove the assembly - 4 screws and an 8-pin plug.
if you hold the joystick assembly upside down you can see the tops of
the springs poking out their slots.
you could prise open the tabs and remove the backs of the pots.
the springs are right there. so you don't have to completely
disassemble the entire joystick or the pots.
you may find replacement springs at a good hardware store, or chop
something up to fit.
should be an easy fix.
