i have tried to check most of the traces on the PCB but they do not appear to be broken but they are bubbly but no sign of cracks and i will try to get some picks up later in the week and also chas10e I get a signal just no response from the Atari

I'm slightly embarrassed to put my measly number of 41 games on here

it has a connector on one side but the other side is soldered to the board. I have now re soldered all the board side connections and checked with a volt meter to make sure they are all good. I have tried at least half my game collection and nothing I have also cleaned the reader and my favourite game 'river raid' and still nothing. now all I get is a blue line on the left side of the TV screen no matter what I do also would this adapter have anything to do with it? http://www.amazon.com/Atari-2600-Coaxial-Plug-Female-Adapter/dp/B0028MXOF6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1446696432&sr=8-1&keywords=atari+adapter

I have a Atari 2600 that had been taken out of storage about 3 years ago. I played with it for about 2 months and it worked flawlessly then one day I bumped it off the table and when I turned it back on it back on the image was scrolling across the screen. it was not bad at first but over time got worse until it was unplayable. so it went back into storage and about 2 weeks ago I took it out to try and fix. thus begins a long endeavour to fix this Atari it is a second gen console with the six switch’s and the PCB's. I opened it up and immediately found a the green wire that connects the two PCB's broke. so I re soldered that back to the board. I then hooked up a 300mah power supply and I got multi coloured lines on the TV. i could not get the Atari to respond when a game was inserted. so I went and found a 1333 ma 9v power supply. I still got multi colour lines. a week passed and then I find two more wires broken that connect the two PCB's together and a brown one and orange one I soldered them back in place and then I took the chips out of the sockets and put them back. I read some were that this fixes it. i then re-flowed all the solder joints on the cartridge reader. and still got the multi coloured lines I don't know if this helps but it also says no signal sometimes with the coloured lines
