swapd0 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Is there place on the PCB except the R140 edges to test if you are in PAL or NTSC mode? I've done the mod but I'm always in NTSC mode, not sure what I've done wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swapd0 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Found, at the left side there's a row of soldering. The top one and the fourth starting at the bottom are the left and the right side of that resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swapd0 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) I can't understand it, it doesn't matter if they are connected or not but I always get a NTSC Jaguar (VIDTYPE != 0 always) Edited August 15, 2019 by swapd0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Check that you have identified the right resistor, removed it and that the soldering is correct (no cold solder or short-circuit). There's very little that can go wrong if you follow the steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayreon Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Uhm, maybe not the answer you seek, but for quick testing you can use Super Burn out. Check if the speed is measured in MP/H (60Hz) or KM/H (50Hz) and see if that changes when you start the Jag after you put the switch in the other setting. No need to find the right spot to measure things unless you have to trouble shoot where things are going wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swapd0 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I can't make the connection but I've realised that the each pin of the resistor are connected to that points, can I use these points to connect the switch? I've already removed the resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swapd0 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Also the left point above R140 shares the same line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tested with Super Burn Out and it works. 22 hours ago, swapd0 said: Also the left point above R140 shares the same line. This is wrong. 7 hours ago, Zerosquare said: Yes. Yes, it works. I've used that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
