  At the end all I can say, that I dont know why it didnt read any games before. I gave it a good clean, like any other dirty parts and as you could see it didnt turn on first. After I replaced the fuse, it was working fine. Let me know if the fuse could have some impact on reading games?

  I just took a bath, but seeing inside the SNES at the start of the process makes me feel like I need another one! 😱 But you got it to work! Amazing!

  My snes only works if I turn it on and of quick or if I use the reset button. Otherwise just a black screen. Tried cleaning the pin &nbsp;connector, switched the power button from a donor same issue. The games work fine on other consoles. Also tried a different power supply with no luck. All the capacitors look fine and no leaks spotted.<br><br>Any ideas what the issue is?

  It would have been too easy if the repair had only been completed with a cleaning ;) But I am amazed that the traces of rust in the device were not even more rotten, especially on the circuit boards. where did you dig up the old tube tv? xD the part belongs in a museum. I can imagine that such a small fuse is responsible for such problems. In my old job, I&apos;ve often experienced that such a small component can cause big problems. Just because the device gets power and turns on doesn&apos;t mean it works. like a defective track.

  Capacitor issue? I bought a second hand North American SNES that was not reading games at first. It started to read games after a good cleaning with 99% isopropyl alcohol but then I tried a game with an SA-1 chip and it stopped reading all games again. I replaced all the electrolytic capacitors and added the extra 1000uf 25v capacitor not in North American models. That seems to have fix the problem because it works again. &nbsp;I noticed in the PAL CPU01 Capacitor list on SNES-TechWiki states &quot;C59 10uF25v This cap should be updated to bipolar&quot; Maybe that Capacitor is causing a problem on the board you repaired?
