Console Repair/Mod Center
So I came across here looking for a fix to the sound issues on my TE (via the link on the TE wiki page) and was wondering if anyone had figured out how to fix the video issues as well. The screen turns on, and is backlit, but the screen stays black. I can hear the sound from the games, but no image. Then, when I connect my Turbo Video tuner, and turn it on, the screen goes from a black image, to a straight unlit black screen (like the LCD actually turned off), but I can still hear the sound from the TV channels.
After turning the TV tuner on and off, connecting and disconnecting it, and turning the TE on and off (all in various orders) I can eventually get the image to come up. It will continue to work for awhile, unless I leave it off for more than 5 or 10 minutes. So I assumed it was an issue with the electronics needing to warm up. I tried leaving the unit on for a few minutes, then turning it on and off again, no luck. Tried longer, no luck. Only way I can get the image to appear is to use the method described with the Turbo Vision. It takes quite a few tries, but it will eventually come up.
Any suggestions?
