+Guessing E1 is Zener Diode. Left connector is wired to circuit board in yoke, connecting to triggers, thumbsticks, etc. The X-Axis started working again for a while when I connected oscilloscope probe to right-most connection (which goes to pin 3 of the Hall Effect Sensor - Output). Maybe Zener Diode has connection problem?

+Apparently some of the wiring became broken. The wire which plugs in near E1 was pulled loose, so straightening it seemed to help.
+The thumb joy stick which changes the view horizontally also started being erratic. Apparently fixed by soldering a red wire along that ribbon cable's red edge wire. The wire seemed to have a limp place. Pushing on the wire just slightly caused the joy stick output to fix, at least temporarily.
+The wire is
+position (individual wires) in a ribbon cable, 6" long, 0.8mm pitch
