Introduction

If your Logitech G X56 HOTAS Throttle is failing to respond to inputs, not lighting up, or showing no signs of power when connected, the issue may lie with the internal logic and power board. This component manages both electrical power distribution and signal processing within the throttle. Over time, it can fail due to electrical surges, wear, or internal damage. This guide will walk you through the steps required to safely disassemble the device and replace the logic and power board, restoring functionality and extending the life of your throttle.
