Broken ZX Spectrum Restored, Repaired, Modded & Upgraded!

About this video

Do all the capacitors in a ZX Spectrum need replacing? The maker also asks whether a membrane keyboard can be repaired, why the machine runs hot and how to connect it to a flat-screen TV.

Good to know: Capacitor work means soldering: burns and fumes, and old solder contains lead. The maker admits to mistakes along the way.

Why watch it

The maker warns not to expect perfection and says the mistakes shown are ones a reader might make too, so treat the tips as one approach. Custom paint and sound mods also feature.
