Rocko Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Is there a game in there? If not, put a game in there. If that doesnt work, check the contacts and clean them with rubbing alcohol and a Q-tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susuwatari Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Also some Lynx II are known to have burned out transistor that controls the power. When it's dead, no amount of button mashing would help. Unfortunately no one seems to have found suitable replacement transistor other than from a different Lynx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
