Hi,

I have a PC Engine that would not power on, so I replaced the fuse. It then worked fine.

I then made an AV cable following this tutorial: http://www.cgquarterly.com/2010/04/26/building-a-turbografx-16-pc-engine-composite-av-cable/

It worked, then I unplugged the cables in order to heatshrink them (I had them bare before), and then when I plugged them back in, the PC Engine is no longer outputting anything, even through RF. Is it possible I shorted something?

I double-checked my AC adapter with a multimeter and it's fine. I opened it again and the fuse is fine.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I'm so frustrated. Thank you.

Turns out it was the fuse again actually. Guess I blew it switching the power on and off with my testing.

That should not blow a fuse but...I'm glad you found the problem.

 If the fuse was blown maybe you don't have an appropriate psu?
