Amiga 4000D repair of mouse/joy ports

[Jacob]

Hi.

A year or so, ago, I wanted to put all my stuff from my A4000T into my other A4000D (to keep it small).

In the process I needed to make a backplate that would allow me to fit both my CyberVisionPPC (2 connectors) and my AmigaDisplayToVGA (1 connector).
After finishing that I had it powered on (but had forgotten to screw down the backplate, so when I accidently pushed the amiga, the displayconnectors hit the wall, and pushed the AmigaDisplayToVGA card into the amiga, hitting some of the connectors (10 pins) in front of the mouse/joy ports (I guess these are internal connectors for the mouse port), and so after that, I could see no movement of my mouse, although I could click both mouse buttons ;-( (I can go into the bootmenu)

I have an idea that there needs to be changed one chip ... I cannot remember the name of it, but think I remember that it might be one of those chips that most often were to be changed on the amiga 500/2000 (Atleast from reading other peoples problems, I never had any such problem) but I am not sure, that that will fix it.

Anyone have any suggestions as what to do to make it work again?

thank you in advance.

Best regards: Jacob

Hi.

and thanks for the fast answers.

X-ray: no, it wasn't an Amiga Technologies case, it was the original Commodore A4000T case (One I acquired from Commodore Denmark when it went into liquidation in 1994). So its actually quite rare (I just looked for the serials on some of the boards):
 A4000T Ports:    8511294365337001000001 (apparantly the FIRST massproduced A4000T Ports card)
 A4000T Disk MDL: 8511294365257001000009
 A4000T PCBA:     8511394365150002000032

The Box itself is in my addict, so I don't have the exact number, but I think that it ended with 70.

I was told that this was one of the very few working amiga 4000T ever manufactured by Commodore, so I am very sorry, but I wont part with the case as it is too valuable to me.

btw. someone mentioned amiga.fr for repairs, does anyone know of other amiga repair facilities in europe?
