[Console Repair/Mod Center / PC Engine Core Grafx II Problem, possibly power related]

So I just went to play some R-Type and got no response from my PC Engine.

I typically use it through my RGB amplifier (transistors), and was playing about with capacitors (220uF) on the RGB lines (and composite sync) last night. After getting no image I've removed them and now I get nothing.

My EverDrive light doesn't blip on when accessing the MicroSD card so I assume I've broken something somehow.

I've also tried connecting it to my LCD TV via the regular composite cables.

I typically use it with an Atari Jaguar PSU which is rated 9V 1.2A - although my multimeter seems to think it's 12v which is a bit disturbing.  

Any idea what's up?

Has anyone had service performed on their PCE?

It seems like fairly good value considering the price they want for the RGB amp - which I admit is fairly expensive alone.

It's like 19 euro more on top to get the chip installed (and tested I'd assume!), 8 pin DIN installed and an RGB SCART cable.
