In this video I attempt to repair the second unit in a batch of three faulty Sega Game Gears that were donated to the channel.
If you missed Episode 1, link below:
🎮 Sega Game Gear Repair-a-thon - Round 1: • Sega Game Gear Repair-...
This particular unit was in great cosmetic condition, and powers up just fine. It does not however display anything on the screen when a cartridge is inserted.
Similarly to Episode 1 of this Game Gear Repair-a-thon, I took the necessary step of recapping this unit to establish a healthy baseline and diagnose any issues further as needed. It turned out to be a VA4 model (compared to the VA1 from Episode 1, and the layout was a little different.
I plan to give away one of these Game Gears when I am done working on them to a lucky subscriber, so stay tuned for your chance to participate in one of my upcoming giveaways.
