How to Repair Black screen of death

    • Cleaning the pins on the games and console game pin connector. Dirt may clog them up over time, preventing the system from working.

    • You will need rubbing alcohol and a q-tip. If you dont have one use water and a credit card with a cloth on it.

    • Wedge the q-tip or credit card into the ports. If the q-tip can't fit take some of the fuzz off.

    • Some cables may not work after a few years. If you notice the power cable being sensitive to movement it may require replacement. Also try doing the same as you did with the game pins to the AV port and AV cable pins.
