One thing i forgot to mention, the previous owner said he tried it on 3 genesis with AV cables. Still got nothing from it he said. Another thing is that i opened the connector between the CD and Genesis and found the magnets inside busted up. I repaired them as best i could. All the RF shielding is in place inside the CD. I checked the ribbon cables and they seemed secure.
