Thanks so much for this. I have two SNESes and they’re different. I used this vid to figure out which parts went to which model! I also need to repair the power port and I am learning to solder. Thanks for the help!

[@Penfold8]

You have real cheap solder wick. I had some just like that and couldn't figure out why I couldn't get it to work very well. I finally bought a different brand and it was night and day. M&G Chemicals, Chemtronics are pretty good. I forgot what I have currently but it's got a yellow label.

This is the only video or content I can find about removing that plastic panel. No one ever removes the lower plastic from the controller ports either...

I'm missing the smaller input power outlet. Someone had to really work at cutting the metal around that input. Any advice on how to fix or go around, which is why I assume they removed it.

My DC jack was loose and power only worked when held a certain way. When I went to resolder the metal ring around where you solder came off. After soldering I now have no power at all. Is it because the metal came off and if it is how do I fix it?

Hey buddy! I have the 2 pin plug, but I lost my adapter. Any idea what adapter to use for it? I can only find adapters to fit the plug like the one you replaced yours with.

Funny thing, I took mine in to sell at gamestop and the idiot snapped mine off and told me it was that way already. I know it was not, but I had no proof. I still have it and now I am fixing it and keeping it.

I had mines since 1993 still working however my back broke off in the same place.

[@RedFaceeee]

Use a heat gun for removal next time. Way easier

[@genXbees]

When I was a kid my dog stepped on the power cable near the back and it broke off!

don't do this unless you know what you're doing. it's always better to call the number on the sticker in the bottom of your SNES, Nintendo Repair Service.

@@jedtheduck idk in USA but Nintenfo Of Mexico does. Maybe because we have factories and production lines.
