SNES bad colors

Post by misjah »

Hi, I have a missing color, I believe it`s blue. Is this fixable? Maybe a bad cap or something.

well, what did you do? we can't help you unless you tell us what happened:P you probably know that though:P it looks more like a weak signal maybe(not sure) or green is missing, because I see blue at the top.

Nothing really, I just got it like that. It`s not even opened. Oh, yeah, I`m trying it with RF out....
The background should be bllue-ish.

are you sure it's hooked up properly? why don't you give it back to the seller 'cause it's broken.

It`s mine, I got it for free and want to fix it. Yep, It`s all connected good, I`m pretty much good with electronics but I don`t want to mess around if this is a common problem and there`s a quick solution.

The green channel is missing. Like others have said, try RGB and Composite.
