Any Sega CD experts here? Need a repair...

[HatefulGravey]

I have a Sega CD model 1 that has stopped working and I have no idea why. If there is something simple I can do that might work I'm willing to try it, but if I have to do too much I would much rather pay someone that knows what they are doing.

 

This unit worked fine, I unplugged it, put it on a shelf and now it isn't working right. I have tried 2 model 1 consoles with it, different power supplies, cleaned the connection and all that jazz, I'm getting nothing. It wont power up.

 

So, any ideas or takers? I'm guessing this is a fuse issue but I'm basing that on nothing at all to be honest.

I can look at it, i've fixed several and have a box of parts I can swap in if needed.

I can also add blue LEDs to it if you want to nix the christmas look!

Have a look at my site, here is the sega cd page.

PM sent. I want it original, just working. I love my Sega CD, and I love this model so I'll do what I have to do to make sure she is in tip top order.

I would suggest the easiest thing first is simpley blowing out the connector that the genesis slides up into. Take a q-tip w/alcohol and rub it inside there or spray some compressed air. If you have deoxit spray it in.

 

I got a sega cd in a few months back and it didn't seem to work, wouldn't power on or anything. After I blew out the side connector it came on and started working perfectly.

Sega CD has a power supply fuse internal that is prone to failure. Most likely the culprit.
