I tried adding HDMI to my n64. It didn’t work. The av still works except it has no audio now. Do you think you can fix it?

Are there specific signs that indicate that the caps need to be replaced? I’ve repaired a number of GameCubes now but I’ve never done this. I know the typical problem with the GameCube is the discs don’t read. In all but one instance I’ve always done the pot tweak and it worked. Could it be that the one instance needed the caps replaced?

Can you tell me how to fix a DOL-101 model GameCube. When I turn the GameCube on it spins a disk for maybe 5 seconds & stops spinning then pops up on a tv screen GameCube memory I’ve tried cleaning the laser lens, checked the caps on the motherboard, & reset the potentiometer, but none of those have fixed it. It’s still the exact same thing.
@totalfix877
@totalfix877 Ай бұрын
This might be due to a faulty reader altogether, I also had problems like this in the past where I just replace the laser lens after caps have been fully replaced. I wish I had a better answer, but I don't want to say that it is that 100% for sure, but generally that's the issue.

Hi, long story short i fried my gba one day after sticking a pair of gator tweezer hooked up to the wall socket, just like the ones you are using to power it up,into the cartridge slot (yes, i know pretty dumb of me to do that, but i was just a curious teenager back then). Anyway, if i get a voltmeter where should i start checking and what values should i look for?
@totalfix877

I guess the first thing to always start on is whether the system powers on. That is the primary place to start. If it doesnt, you would have to investigate if it is a faulty fuse (there is no continuity between the 2 points) or a dirty connecter on the power switch. If those are fine, you can then move over to the capacitors that are near the terminals on bottom right. Check to see if they are good primarily by seeing if the capacitors are broken/shorted/swollen have gone bad. This is just a starting point....if the system is still not powering on/displaying anything, then this requires further inspection and following schematics that are found online to determine that the proper circuit is going where its supposed to. I really do hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

It's always a relief knowing other people have problems fixing this old equipment. My system isn't showing a screen after a recap, either. I'm thinking maybe it's the fuses, or I did the caps wrong, or that I'd be better off just replacing the screen with something more modern (and visible).

This method of cleaning the antenna in the receiver fixed my issue immediately. But it only lasted for about 10 minutes until it got disconnected....i'll try taking apart the controller and cleaning the antenna in there too next. Thanks for the very informative video, I think this has put me on the right path to troubleshooting the issue.

Make sure you test it a lot with a game with heavy cutscenes like Mario sunshine to ensure the disc reader is powerful enough. At first it seemed like I fixed it until it gave me a disc read error at a cutscene.
