This weekend I’ll pick the screwdriver, the tester and the supernintendo power supply with the adapter to VB, so on Sunday or Monday (If my childs alow me) I’ll open the system and try to check what happens inside.
If I couldn’t solve it by self, I’d contact with you (theforce81).
Thanks to both by your help!
P.S. I’m a beginner in the VB. What are the main points to check in the motherboard.
I’ll try to upload the photos of the process, if they could help anyone.
Mmmm…what a pitty. Motherboard problem sounds quite difficult to fix. I’vs using a standard multi voltage ac adapter (9V, 1200A not the best but not the worst ).The console has had very few use during year, but it was exposed in a retro event and it worked for around 5-6 hours almost continuously in a day.The console has worked for around 7 years with that adapter.
Anyway, what should I check to confirm the motherboard is dead? Is it fixable anyway? Is there any problem (with my other VB) to work with the original AC adapter peripheral and the SNES power supply?
As you have said, the sound gets distorted when the screen gets deformed. The console malfunctions until it finally seems to turn off.
Later, I’ve tried to turn on the VB without response for a while but, at the end, it starts again with a glitched screen (and sound).
I have repeated the process several times and the system looked inactive most of the times. When I got some response the screen was glitched.
The games I have used are Vertical Force and Mario Tennis,
The console is fed with an AC adapter at 9V through a modded pad and I have never had problems with it. I have also tested a normal pad with a battery pack (which previously had lack of electrical contact problems) without response.
I’m afraid it is about the screen connection but I don’t know if there are more issues with the console. Apart from the lens problema, Could it be a problem of the electrical supply or the motherboard? I have to wait to the next weekend to get my screwdriver an open the VB to see what happens inside.
One more thing. Are there another common problems apart the lens connection?
