    Hi I'm doing a mod. 50/60 release to a snes and the region, but a wrong cable assembly, gave me melted broken and would not light up, the fuse I replaced it, but I find all the ground and positive points in short, I do not know that component ruined can give this effect. I replaced the fuse, unsoldered the 7805, but I always positive and negative shorted even from the holes of 7805.
    What should I test?
    Thank you

    Can you make a high resolution picture of your SNES and point out where on the board you did modifications?

    The mobo is a chip01, in short are not unsoldered pins, those I tested them with tester, only the merged went. I do not see any drops of tin on integrated, it altro..tutto was turn on the console and the 7805 controller has warmed up a lot; Then at the second firing it is not turned back on.
    The installation and the one on the attached link, only that I had connected the 5V with the second switch. I can not post pictures as I have no means to do so.

    It's impossible to help without a photo.

    You've shorted something so check over your modifications under a microscope (or reverse them).

    You can not run a so extensive, I do not see with the naked eye no tin stain. It could be interrupted at any piste area "pin 4 lifted" but I see nothing, there are no visible micro shorts or micro cracks; I believe in burnt components, I'm sorry but at the moment I have no means to post photos.

    I would not be a reverse pin for 5V I made from output to input of the controller, but that works well.:)

    I merged your posts - please use the multi-quote feature rather than double posting. You can hit reply by as many posts as you like and it will add to the preview text.

    I said use a microscope! Or at least a magnifying glass.

    Take it to a friend with a camera or scanner and get a photo. We cannot diagnose your issue without seeing the board. As it happened after you modified it, this isn't a standard fault - it was caused by your error.

    no, not nulla..ho resolder controller and is turned on, only that, it gave me black screen. Now I reassembled everything as origin, and also the crystal, but it continues to give me black screen.
    I had thought wrong. For the black screen or is the crystal to call the original (I used the one mounted on the switches) or is fried something.

    Ok thanks, I'll look at all the components, and I noticed that the chip under power heat shield, which is seen on the upper right side becomes very hot, just ... I'll see what I can do for me it is ruined beyond repair.

    hmmm , i had a problem with my Neo Geo AES and i was advised to check the chips if they are really hot which is probably the culprit. I did fix the problem it was a basic fix and unrelated to the chips but yeah take my info as in if a chip is really hot it is not functioning right and could be the culprit.


    best of luck
