My color classic won’t boot after recap. I did remove the egret chip and clean it during recap it has cap juice under it. Anything else I need to check. The PSU does power on if I remove the board.
Did it work before recap? Did you do just logic or analog as well? I would check continuity to egret etc. also, really would not hurt to submerge and light scrub in tub of isopropyl. My board a few years back did something similar. Washed it, been fine since. Also after recapping it.My color classic won’t boot after recap.

I just did the logic board. I did work before recap. I will recheck continuity in egret chip and slo the U5 chip @Fizzbinn mentioned.Did it work before recap? Did you do just logic or analog as well?

Clean the whole edge connector both sides with isopropyl too. Did you remove rom chips at all? Maybe check your caps and possibly reflow them. Also check legs to pads on egret and make sure there is a connection. Sometimes it looks like it has connection but doesn’tI removed the U5 chip and cleaned it. CPU bent pin also fixed. I can’t find anything on Erget chip. Still no luck.
Well, without another color classic to try the board in, it really could be anything. The color classic is a picky little turd once in awhile.Yup did all that. And still no power. All the erget leads have no continuity issue. Checked that too. Is it possible that the erget chip has gone bad?
Well, if you want can send to me and I can take a look? I have two systems. I dont have any mystic boards or 520 boards. Will keep a look out.Yeah I am going to sit on it until I find mystic board or decently priced 520.
In Ontario Canada. Yeah, it’s weird that it worked and now doesn’t. Something has is being overlooked possibly. I am not sure what egrets are compatible with the cc.Where you located? I am going remove the caps and clean the board again. If that doesn’t work I can send it your way.
Polarity can be seen in the photos they shared and they're all good that I can see.Have you checked polarity on any of the caps?
OK. Thanks for replying on my post btw.Polarity can be seen in the photos they shared and they're all good that I can see.
