is there any way to get a replacment tiny thing Labled C26 on the snes mini board? or does any one have a dead snes mini board that still has it on there?

It sounds like just a capacitor. you should be able to get a replacement from radio shack easily enough, if you can still read the values.

I have a broken mini, I'l ship you just the component if you're in canada.

I am in the US, any way you coul ship it to the US?(I will pay shipping if you want )I woud preferr not just the componet because it is a milimeter thick(tiny)

Just replace it, C36 is definently a capacitor and it's probably gonna cost you only a few cents in you're regular electronics store. No need to order any by mail.

Agreed. But nobody knows what its capacity is. I doubt anyone has one of those fancy meters.

Let me find my schematics and I'll find the value. It'll take a few days to find my schematic files though, might be better to just try to download them.

kurt, you dont have to "ship" it, you can just put it in an envelope and mail it. it would cost like a dollar.

anyways, i dont think radio shack sells surface mount capacitors. you might have some trouble putting a normal big one back on there...

does the snes work still? not all the capacitors are necessary

You're right on the first point, although I don't see any problems about a through-hole component not fitting on the board; simply extend the leads so they're not in the way, and have it wrap around the mobo.

I want to try any thing to make it work, (it took me 2 days to relocate the cart slot the fisti get it to work, I can stuff it into the case and its done:D time, 1 day for the second time...)And I have everything hooked up, one
