      I have a Cougar I bought about 3 years ago, but the buttons slowly stopped working. Does anybody know who can fix it? Or does anybody know how can I fix it?

      Thanks.

        What exactly has stopped working? Are you still seeing events in the CCP or are they completely dead?

        Cheers, Uwe

              Well, if the buttons have stopped working, you could try the obvious and order replacement buttons from Thrustmaster. I had to do that with my throttle potentiometer.

              It could be the wires as well, which has happened to my cougar stick and throttle several times. That just requires opening it up, and soldering the wires back together.
