Commodore Amiga 500+ - Corrosion & More

GadgetUK - Retro Gaming Repairs & Mods 1h 22m Published Sept 2026

About this video

Corrosion and odd behaviour once it boots are the problems on this Amiga 500+, a donated machine the channel works through after getting it running.

Good to know: Any leaked battery residue is corrosive. An old cell should come out before it leaks, and a swollen or leaking one must never be recharged.

Why watch it

Getting the machine to boot is only the start: the strange behaviours the maker mentions appear after that, and the video runs to well over an hour.
