4 Slot Board problem, my number 4 slot doesnt work or rarely works

[limon31]

What could it be? since almost 2 years of owning the board I got it to work like 2 times... I cleaned the board,the slots and the traces and they seem to be fine, could it be the power supply or something? help guys... thanks

Check your voltage, at the jamma edge connector.

Aim for 5.00v.

Also, try loading the board with carts, one cart at a time. Try and find a cart order that works.

It might help if you explain what is happening when you put a game in slot 4.

If it works sometimes then it's a bent, dirty, or corroded slot connector.
