It's all in the service manual which can be downloaded from the group archives(try the files section). There is a calibration routine for the joystick, written in the service manual. Have a go yourself first at reading the schematic and trying to understand what's happening. It's more rewarding to do it this way. Nothing better than figuring something out yourself, but, if you get stuck you can come back here and ask some more questions.
