vintagegamecrazy Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I have an intellivision model 1 system that I thought I had fixed by reflowing all of the connections for the controllers. It turns out that it still giving me issues. The first time I used it it played fine for a few minutes and then the controllers quit working. I cleaned it all up inside and it worked again for about 10 minutes and then the controllers went out again. Something is obviously overheating. Is there a chip or something that can be replaced inside that can fix this or a possible heatsink issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 If the controllers cease to work, the probable culprit is the AY-3-8914 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagegamecrazy Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 They work for a few minutes and then stop after it cools down for a while they work again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
