Hallo !

A friend of mine asked me to check on his PCE as it turns out it was already "victim" of patching and a bad RGB mod attempt.

The console turns on, gets a purple'ish image and then it fades right away or gets totally black.

Underneath the Oscillator 101 you can find 2 SMD resistors and caps. the C 153 is empty.
Any white PCE owners/modders can check on this one? Thanks.

Mine has a filter? resistor? I don't know what that is exactly but definitely it doesn't look like yours:

c153

It's not mine.
If yours is a white PCE, it definitely has a different board revision.

Yes, white (vanilla yellow actually:lolz:) PCengine, Rf only.

C153 is located to the right of C146 on mine.
