the system was working great. well i opened it up and cleaned it really well like i do all of my units.

anyways when i put it back together the damn thing won't show a picture on the tv like it did before i opened it.

i have the atari expansion thing for it and when i plug it in and put a game in it the atari game comes up on the tv. so any idea why the collecovision itself won't show anything on the tv?

i know this is in the wrong thread, but no one looks at the techy forums anymore!

Usually helps if you spell your thread titles correctly.

Try cleaning your games, you never know.

I feel for ya, Colecovision consoles are the junkiest pieces of crap ever made. I love the system and games, but dang does the hardware have issues.

Hey, you've got to give Coleco credit for building a system from off the shelf components.

i did mispell it didn't i. oh well it doesn't matter anyways. its not the games causing the problem. its something inside the thing, but i can't figure out what is causing it.

Lots of people read the tech forum. I do not have enough info from you here to guess.

With the info you have given me, so far in my professional opinion, I think you may have broken it.
