awesome repair! I messed up my own install of the DCHDMI... but it was not as horrid as this one and that makes me feel good! ha! all my mistake was not aligning the pads correctly on the video chip... then I desoldered the flex cable and resoldered it back on... that's when it was game over for me! I ended up knocking a few pads off the video connections.... and that's because I dragged the braid across when removing the solder, bad mistake! anyway I already ordered a couple of new flex cables and will try again.... my hopes are really high that that's the only thing I messed up on the install and it will work

I do own a Panasonic Q, I have not been able to use it since it was never modded and I am completely interested on getting all the mods you offer (US Switch + GCVIDEO HDMI & 3D Holder). Is there any way I can contact you directly? Also, I wanted to know if it´s possible to also add an EUR Switch to play European coded games, maybe? I will be looking forward to your reply, thanks.

Hi Elisa, on the composite out port you get the gamecube screen ? if so most likely the GC motherboard is dead (you can replace this with a normal gamecube motherboard but you have to desolder the digital port and resolder the flexcable port.)

Is there any chance you could share the 3d printed file you created with us? I'm planning on doing this with mine here in Brazil but i don't understand very well these 3D prints (altough i have a friend that does these 3d prints, so he could print it for me). Also, you think it could be possible to convert the input voltage from 110v to 220v by swapping some capacitors/VDR/Fuse?
@bjorncollaer30475 жыл бұрын
Hi, contact me for the file ([email protected]) . As for the powersupply be carefull it's not just changing the caps etc to run it on 220v, the coil also has to have the ratio changed... don't get me wrong it's do-able but not "easy" (a 220v to 110v external convertor is "easyer" and safer) good luck !

Hi, you can swap the mainboard but you have to solder some connectors of the 'original' mainboard and put them on your donor board. Your problem has nothing to do with the mainboard tough.

I don't have a service manual with all the voltages. You don't need to check the voltages. If you want your console to work again and stay working again for years to come, just change all the caps ... much easyer then finding the one that's defective. Eventually another will go bad and you will have to search again.

Hi, sorry for the late answer. You probably have a bad power cap somewhere on the powerboard, wich is preventing the console to switch on. check is you find a cap like this -> www.markdigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bulging_capacitors.jpg
