Restoring & Repair the original dead and yellowed Nintendo SNES - Vintage Console - ASMR

Find a dead SNES, or did your SNES stop powering on? A Simple $1.50 1.5amp pico fuse could be your culprit!

This week I have decided to fully restore this super yellow super Nintendo entertainment system.

First, I remove 6 security screws from the base to allow me to separate the two halves then once inside I can start to take it apart properly, first, I removed the power switch then the cartridge ejection lever I then removed all the screws from the motherboard and removed it from the lower casing.

What are Pico fuses?
A Pico fuse is an axial leaded subminiature fuse, that is offered in both fast acting, and time lag, versions. Fuse Pico voltage, ratings typically range from 32 volts to 250 volts AC with the most common fuses rated at 125 volts AC. ... The Littelfuse Pico fuse brand names are Pico® and Pico II, ®.
I then washed the plastics in soapy water to remove all grime and grease in preparation for the next step which was to soak them in Cream Peroxide Developer 40 Volume and UV light for several days to remove the years of yellowing that has taken place, This process is also known as retr0brite.

I show you how to remove the yellowing from vintage plastics with the Retr0bright method.

How to Restore a Yellow Super Nintendo the Easy Way
This video will show you how to make your yellowed SNES look almost new again.

Coat the plastic in hydrogen peroxide to fix discoloration. Hydrogen peroxide works well on plastics that have turned entirely yellow instead of in just one spot. Fill a plastic bag with enough hydrogen peroxide to cover the plastic. Stick the plastic in the bag of hydrogen peroxide and lay it out in direct sunlight. Wait 3-4 hours before rinsing it off with clean water.[5]
You can purchase hydrogen peroxide at a drugstore or big box store.
If you’re treating some sort of plastic mechanism, make sure you remove all the parts that aren’t plastic before putting them into the hydrogen peroxide.
You can also use an old toothbrush to scrub the hydrogen peroxide onto the plastic if desired
