Nothing to do with AV mod. Clean slot first.

Yeah try the credit card+ old t-shirt cleaning trick :D Just be gentle, you don't want to bend any pins.

Do you ground the copper tape somehow?

untinip

Interesting! I've never used copper tape before. So, you just solder directly on it?

untinip

Cool! I will definitely attempt this. Thanks for clarifying, 80sFREAK!

Thanks for the tip! I'll use rubber gloves when doing it, then.

Hi there,

I'm new to the famicom scene.
I'm Dutch  so I have a pal TV.
And i have a GPM02 famicom with a megadrive 1\ genesis 1 power supply.
But I have a problem. I desoldered the 2SA937. Something went wrong and Pin C broke.
I tried to bridge it with enough of solder, but that didn't work.
When i tried to turn it on it doesn't give a signal to my tv.
I don't even know if this famicom is working.
Can I check this with a 2200ohm resistand and a LED?
Anyhow, is there somekind of replacement transistor instead of the 2SA937?

Thank you in advance.

Regards

Of course you can use any PNP transisor, don't worry.

Hey there guys! Got my Famicom in the mail today and on the board it says HVC-CPU-08. The tutorial for removing and placing the transistor is only for rev 01-07.

Should I go ahead and do the same anyway?

Ps. I'm new to console modding, any help would be most helpful :D

Can you please do a couple of hi-res photos of your board? It's quite rare to find this revision...thanks!

Sorry, these are the best photos I can take right now.

That board still has a 2SA937 so you could use that in an AV mod no problem.
