Turbo requires the Expansion Module #2 Driving Controller, this controller plugs into Joystick Port #1 in place of the Hand Controller. Then you place the Hand Controller plugged into Port #2 in the opening next to the steering wheel. The wheel controls your car's left and right movement while the hand controller is used to select the skill level via the numpad and is used to shift gears (hi and low). Also, there is a gas pedal that comes with the unit that is used to control your speed.

While the Cabbage Patch Kids cart could be bad, your system might need to be opened up and cleaned up.... especially the Power Switch. See some of the recent threads concerning DIY options or contact Yurkie to inquire about his tremendous service.

hook an atari,master system or genesis controller in port 1 and see if you can steer. use 2nd controller to press 1 to start.

Yes, Turbo requires the Driving Module (Expansion Module #2). For now you may want to look for Donkey Kong.

Think he means just look for a cheap cartridge to buy so that you have another game to test the system and controllers with... especially if where ever you buy the cart(s) has tested and verified that they are in working order.
