Sega Master System II display problem - screens inside -

Hi,

I've recently picked up a Master System 2 (Pal) with quite a few games

I connected the system to my crt tv via RF and was greeted with a greenish blue display, reds appearing black and no sound?

I quickly Av modded the system, but had the same graphics issue? At least the sound is back

I just wanted to know if anyone else has come across this problem before or any hints as to what I could do to fix it? Also, tried the system on my led tv and the problem persists?

 

Capacitors around the video encoder maybe.

 

Thanks, I'll check them out. I have noticed a bit of corrosion on the traces too :/

 

yeah, you're just missing RED. However, it will be going to your CXA1145 encoder from your VDP. Check the 0.1uf SMD cap going to red and measure that trace down the VDP. Let us know what you find.

Thanks.

I'll check this out later today and get back to you
