Lynx Mk2 not powering on

Hi guy's and girls, 

 

I'm new to this site so apologies if I'm asking the question in the wrong place. 

 

I have that age old problem with a lynx mk2 not powering up with batteries or psu, I have done the bypass trick to headphone ground with a strange result! The console powers on with or without a game inserted but with a game inserted I get no picture or sound! 

 

Can anyone help me with this problem? 

 

Regards

With the bypass trick you could have fried something.

 

I do it sometimes, but I power the lynx with a 5v psu to not damage anything.

 

There is the possibility that replacing the voltage regulator components it will back to normality. Make it check by someone experienced in repairing lynx unit.

 

There are people on this forum that offer repairing services.

Thanks for the comments, would performing the bypass cause the console to power on without a game inserted?
