Multitap found.
Still looking for some controllers, preferably with the turbo switches. Thanks!

Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB Controllers and Multitap
02/02/2015, 12:29 PM
Hi gang,
Topic says it all - Looking for some controllers and a multitap for the PC Engine. Coregrafx controllers are fine too. Hoping to pay a little less than ebay going rates, but will pay a fair price.
PM me with pics and price of what you've got. Thanks!

Hey Alls Wills,
I joined these forums, barely made any posts, and have made a few transactions already, so don't worry about it.
Good luck on your search!

Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Complete PC engine Briefcase setups for sale. Plus Some DUOs :)

I too just received my PC Engine briefcase from Keith Courage and what is there to say? The thing is perfect. Looks great, works great, and was packed great.
I paid extra to have a region switch put in and the switch installation was done so neatly that it looks like the console was manufactured with it.
If you are thinking of getting one of these consoles, don't hesitate to deal with this seller. Top notch product. Thanks again!

Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Dead TG16. Hot Transistor. Help?

The transistor in question is the 7805 voltage regulator and you absolutely, positively must have a heat sink on it. It gets incredibly hot without it and it'll shut down within a few minutes as a result.[/quote]
Understood.
What are my options for installing some kind of heat sink here if I can't find the original silver casing? (which I'm guessing is going to be impossible to find...)

Console Repair/Mod Center / Dead TG16. Hot Transistor. Help?
11/10/2014, 02:05 PM
Hi gang,
I was given 2 broken Turbo Grafx 16 consoles to "take a crack" at repairing. I fixed the first one by doing some cleaning and solder reflowing, especially on the encased RF output module. I got it working 100%.
The second one, however, is given me a bit more of a problem. When I turn it on, I get a white screen (occasionally a pink screen depending on how tight or loose I put a game in). I reflowed the entire pcb and cleaned the contacts thoroughly. Nothing. It's worth noting that this console doesn't have the silver encasing on the pcb and the black transistor hanging off at the bottom of the pcb grows very hot when the console is powered on. From looking at the other console, it seems as though the silver casing acts as a heat sink since the transistor is screwed into it, but I can't be sure because I don't know how hot that transistor usually gets.
I'm decent at soldering and confident I can repair the pcb, but I just don't know how or what to test in order to figure out what I need to repair. I'll try to get some high res pics of the pcb up soon, but any input you guys have is appreciated.
Thanks!
