Scrambled Graphics on every Game

Hey all, not sure if this is the right place to post. I have a NES TV (model 19sv111) and it suddenly showed scrambled graphics from the NES console one day. Every game does this. The games do play and sound fine.

I tried a new cartridge connector and the games will now boot without pressing down but still scrambled graphics. A visual inspection shows the caps look alright but I don't have a way to test them. Thinking about getting a cap kit for it.

The motherboard for this TV looks almost identical to a NES-001 with differences in the video output area. Is there a chip that may have crapped out? How could I check?

Hi!

There are a few things to try.

1: Replace the PIN connector and see how that goes, you already did you said, it's not normal that it boot without pressing it down, but won't be issue regarding you have now.

2: Do a complete re-cap and see how that goes. It could solve the glitchy screen.

3: Try a new video cable and see how that goes!

If the above failed, then it's something else on the motherboard and could be a lot of things. Most likely that the CPU went bad...
