Hello,
This is my first post here. I have lingered on these forums but never had to post anything until now.
I have a Super Contra board that has a minor and annoying issue. The board blindly boots. Seems to play and sound fine, but the Video is a blank white screen with the odd graphic appearing on the screen. I have checked the board over a few times and see nothing bent, broken, burnt, etc. I can get the video to work %100 when I squeeze down on the connector between the two boards (shown in the first picture). This made me think it was this particular connector, but when I test the continuity through the connector everything checks out.
Any thoughts on what I could try? Should I just try to get a new connector? If so, where would I find one?
