Commodore VIC-20 Repair: Emotional Roller Coaster!

In this video we are repairing a VIC-20 that I got from Facebook Marketplace.

I got Mole Attack at a local vintage game shop along with 4 or 5 other VIC-20 carts. I showed Mole Attack to my kids and let's just say they were underwhelmed.

😅 Not enough flashing lights and polygons! It's a fun game.

You can replace the 6522’s with brand new ones from WDC for $10 each.

The vic chip is probably fine. Try adjusting the variable capacitors on the video circuit…..some vic chips have trouble with new monitors

I messed with them a bit, but the problem followed the vic chip to another machine.

Looks like the RAM is going or bad caps
