    Default atari 2600 6 switch

    looking on a guide of how to fix this or a repair manual.

    the system turns on, but all i get on the screen is some diaganol lines. i have tried different rf switch boxes and i get the same thing everytime. there is also no sound when the unit is on. any help would be greatly appreciated

    TurboDuo laser replacement... I just did this repair today, and it worked beautifully! The process is easy, but the guide is useful because it tells you exactly what part you need and where to find it.

    I found this today and thought it would really help, as it did for me.

    If you're having trouble with the shoulder buttons on a DS, before you bring it in for repairs or take it apart, try blowing hardly, or using compressed air, right at the separation between the case and the button. My R button hasn't worked for months, but this fixed it in about 15 seconds.

    Mob was it necessary to calibrate the Laser, or was it just plug and play?

    They should be plug and play. (I can't remember but there's probably an anti-static point you have to remove though)
