1. What screen is it?
2. What Genesis is it?
3. Why did it cost $160?!
4. The board is most likely OK.

well, i assume the lcd has composite out correct? well then you just need to find out the pinout of the genisis! easy as that! there should be pins for audio left and right luma chroma and video and a video and audio ground and thats it i think? im not sure, just look up "genisis AV pinouts" on the search of this forum, or google it. or go to doomportables

it is a SEga genesis 1, the lcd is a lcd from www.i-mcm.com (item number 60-9855), and I dont need audio cause i have headphone, and I kinda just wanna run it of that. So now saying that, how do I plug it in again.

you know, you should really be a bit more patient...
anyway, to connect the genesis to the LCD, first wire pin 2 to the video input pin on the lcd controller board...then, wire pin 4 (ground) to the "gnd" (or ground) pin on the lcd controller board...for power, simply have the positive end of a 12v battery to the 12v pin on the lcd board, and then the negative end of the battery to ground on the lcd board...
