Sega Dreamcast Teardown + VGA Mod + Battery Replacement + LED Mod + Common Faults
About this video
Dreamcast common faults come up as the maker takes one apart and rebuilds it, with a VGA socket, a blue LED, a battery replacement and a fix for it powering off.
Good to know: Mains voltage and charged capacitors inside. The console charges its clock cell, so never fit a plain CR2032, and solder only the tabs of a tabbed cell. Soldering means burns and fumes. Never look into a powered laser.
Why watch it
Conversational, and the maker admits some mistakes still need editing out. The maker also names a fuse or ICP on the small controller board that sometimes blows as a common fault.
