SNES - dirty pins ?

[tk1975]

I just bought a SNES yesterday w Super Mario World and while playing I get popping sounds here and there, as well as a few flashes of white lines with it.

I am assuming its a cleaning issue, but could it also be the pins need to be replaced ?

Or could it be a bad RF box ?

The game in the slot seems to have more front to back play than I remember.

thanks

Sounds like a pin issue to me.

I just did a basic cleaning of the cart and console and it seemed to eliminate it. Hopefully that's all it was. thanks

Pins, my grandfather gave me his snes and the games were all messed up, a few years later I cleaned em and it worked perfectly.
