NEC — PC Engine GT
Every single capacitor on this GT had leaked. A careful removal technique preserved all the pads and it came out the other end clean and happy.
This is the worst area but ALL of the capacitors have leaked, even the one on the controller input PCB. #RETROGAMING #PCEngine
Removed all the capacitors using a @A3rgan's technique of gently twisting until the cans come loose. I'm surprised at how effective it was. Cleaned all pads with flux and braid, not a single pad lost and a lot were pitch black before cleaning. #RETROGAMING #PCEngine
Repopulated the board with new capacitors and also the ceramics for the jailbar fix. Cleaned everything and closed it up. Tested with #bomberman 94. This is now a happy #PCEngine GT. #RETROGAMING
Another @PointerFunction stand added to the collection. #PCEngine #RETROGAMING
