Atari Lynx No Power Repair - Power Components & Capacitor Replacement Guide

About this video

Atari Lynx Model 2 consoles often fail to turn on, and here the power stage is rebuilt with a Digital Delights kit, replacing a MOSFET, diode, two transistors and a resistor.

Good to know: Hot air and soldering mean burns and fumes; old solder contains lead. The kit comes from Digital Delights.

Why watch it

Component references are given, from the MOSFET at Q12 to resistor R74, so a Model 2 board can be checked against them, and the maker reports the screen lighting and a game starting afterwards.
