How to Fix SNES With No Signal | RUMBLEBOX Repair

[@charliemelton885]

Crazy that this fix is so consistent, just wanted to let you know you’re still saving people in 2024

[@williamgrandy698]

Yup. After following your video, I did the same and now it works. I could see a little corrosion on one of the pins. Thank you!

[@smashsix4273]

Thanks, your video helped me fix my console. Now I need to figure out the best way to remove the yellow color from the console.

Please please don't ever do that. I would gladly pay for shipping for you to send me a Super Nintendo that doesn't work instead of you breaking it. We need to preserve the history. I mean yeah, it is yours console, but it would make me and many others very sad. I'm really glad you got it working.

Great tip! Got my SNES back up and running.

This is exactly what I needed, thank you - followed your instructions and I've now got a fully working SNES again :D

This was exactly what was wrong with the one I just got! Great video and thank you for posting it! Mario kart here here I come!

Any advice on how to clean the 64 pins on the inside of a SNES 1995 model? The 64 pin is soldered to the board and can't be removed like the earlier models can.

[@rickmorgan8236]

What tool is using to taking apart the system and where do you get one?

[@sceneitallwithjeffandjon6984]

My pin connector will not come out after taking out all of the screws. I do have a 1995 motherboard that says SNS-CPU-1CHIP-03.

[@WhyNotYolo]

Hey quick question any idea on how to fix a snes that plays the game cart but the video is upside down?

[@dr.poohcee7123]

Sounds like something is messed up internally. A loose pin or something in the mother board. Could need a possible re-soldering

[@jamieleebusch]

Have you tried mounting your TV to the wall and then rotating it 180 degrees?

[@ENFDO]

I got one SNES control deck since 1992 and stop playing with it in 1994. A few days ago i start it up and happens the same as in the video and i know what im going to do tomorrow LOL.

[@mskiara18]

Thank you for sharing your video sir, I hope this will help my Super Nintendo since I purchased new cables and that did not help with the black screen or broken picture.

stopped by my parents place the other day and found a Cache of old systems, my old snes, my playstation 1 my xbox crystal clear edition. I turned on my super nintendo and there was no display so now i am waiting on my game bit to come today so i can open it up, my question is, Is there a lock on the ribbon cable you disconnected? I ruin A lot of my electronic projects because i am too rough on ribbon cables, so i was wondering is there a ribbon cable lock you have to flip up and how much force should u use when you plug it back in?

[@01hondascott]

followed step by step and still isn't working :(

@@01hondascott did you ever figure it out?

[@rdaws73]

Take a shot everytime you he says "here"

[@KimberlyFaber]

I tried this step by step and it was helpful but I still get "no signal". I've tried with the av cables directly to tv and with an HDMI converter. When I do the converter I get the starting "ding" with Mario Kart but still a blue screen that says "no signal". I've also tried the RF cable and turning the console on just changes the pattern of fuzz on the screen.

[@gasmask4poop]

Same. Anyone got some advice?

[@quin13g]

Your CPU Chip could have failed

[@slippyfrogTV]

@@gasmask4poop same happened to me. Try buying a new AC adapter. worked perfectly for me. Twice with two different consoles.

[@jacobperry3857]

The cartridge connector in mine is super hard to pull out. any tips or is there a mechanism I need to pinch?

[@kingforaday8725]

I believe on the later SNES's that connecter doesnt come out like this video shows. Not sure if it comes off at all.

[@SlavicUnionGaming]

Only way to revert the Plastic back to its original color is to Submerge it in Hydrogen peroxide, and let it sit out in the hot sun for a couple of hours. Or if the weather is against you do the same thing but instead of hot sun, Lay it under LED UV lights and let it sit in that with the room dark

[@stephenieayer749]

Did what you said but I’m still having issues. Some games will start briefly but others won’t start at all. Any advice on what next steps to take?

[@m1zd515]

Try cleaning them with a q-tip with 90-99% alcohol

[@Nathan-lt6bw]

I have AN SNSES with video output but it's not reading the game has it should it's saying some weird error code any ideas?

[@C.K86]

Hey so do you know how to fix a snes red screen and what is it called if not then can you bring me to a video to fix it and if there isn't a name for it I will call it the Virtual Boy screen.

[@J10969]

3:40 that piece on mine isn’t coming out. Is there some trick to it? Do I need to pinch it in any particular spot?

[@rumblebox_]

It should just be held in by two screws, but it should come loose if you wiggle it and pull it up. Sometimes they can be pretty stuck on there pretty tight.

[@J10969]

@@rumblebox_ I found out later models aren’t removable. Not sure what year Nintendo decided to switch the design but I have 2 snes systems, a ‘93 and a ‘95. The ‘93 comes off easily while the ‘95 does not.

91% isopropyl alcohol I assume then you can't use a 70%, right?

Can this method work on the snes jr as well?

[@NightmareShadows13]

I managed to clean a truly disgusting amount of dust out of my console, but it's still not giving my TV any signal either with the old coaxel set up nor the vga cable. And I know the VGA cable is still good as it's the same one I use for my GameCube with no issues.

[@slippyfrogTV]

i can almost promise you then its not a signal issue, you may have a dying AC adapter. if it powers on but wont send signal, buy a replacement adapter or find an OEM adapter and i promise youll thank me later. I've saved 4 SNES's from just doing this alone.

[@pressjocky6485]

Ac adaptor? For whole unite or for connetion between tv and unite?

[@corvus9950]

It’s ok if I have a 70 percent alcohol?

[@rumblebox_]

I’ve only used the the higher percentage alcohols in my projects so I’m not sure. Generally, when working with electronics the higher the better.

[@corvus9950]

@@rumblebox_ yeah I tried the 70% and it worked now. They say that if the alcohol is bellow then 50% then it could be harmful for the console. but anyway thank you because the video tells how to do all the setup.

Hello, my super nintendo turns on, the red light comes on when I turn the switch to the on position, but it does not show image and it beeps with the cartridge inserted. I tried it with another game and the result is the same. It should be noted that I already did the cleaning operation of the connectors, however, the problem persists. Could it be that the video audio output of the console has problems? If so, what would you advise me? Greetings from Chile.
