+-^CrossBow^- Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Restoring in what way exactly? Are we talking cosmetic... functionality... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jham55 Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 Functionality— so far it’s not turning on. The power supply works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 @jham55 There is a 2A pico type fuse near the RF modulator along the side of the main board. Check to see if that has blown open. Although on quite a few Inty2 consoles, I've seen that fuse not installed and a piece of component lead soldered in its place... You can see it in this pic below where I replaced one out. It is the green component there in the center of the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jham55 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 Ahh interesting. How could you tell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Have to use a multimeter on the continuity setting to see if the fuse is still good. Also you have verified that the power supply is working properly correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jham55 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 Also yes the power supply works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jham55 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 Did you remove the component to test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s good, it will be shorted. No need to take it out. you could also just jumper it if you wanted to quickly test it if you don’t have a multimeter.

jham55 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 The fuse tested fine with the multimeter. It was 0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jham55 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 Actually that could be wrong. It said 0L so maybe it is broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jham55 Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share Posted May 15, 2022 Thanks everyone— replacing the fuse and it powers right on. Now to test a game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
