Our nine month old Nintendo is on the blink and I would
appreciate pointers to information (schematic would be great but I
won't hold my breath) about it.
The power ON light blinks even when no game has been inserted. I've
tried cleaning the contacts on the game connector and have done a
visual inspection. I have not checked the 7805 voltage regulator yet.
Would I be correct in assuming that the blinking light indicates
an overload ?
Thank you;
