Cartridges |
1.)
Collect all the
necessary supplies -
Q-Tips, rubbing alcohol,
and the dirty
cartridge(s).
2.) Dip
one of the fuzzy cotton
ends of a Q-Tip into the
rubbing alcohol.
3.)
Slowly rub the wet end of
Q-Tip on the contacts of
the game cartridge. Slide
it back and forth
touching every receptor.
4.) Flip
the Q-Tip over to the dry
end then soak up the
rubbing alcohol on the
contacts of the
cartridge.
5.) Keep
repeating the first four
steps until the Q-Tip
comes out clean.
Cleaning Cartridges
If the NES still doesn't
work, the contacts inside
the machine may be dirty. |

| Cleaning
the System |
1.)
Take off the six screws
on the bottom of your
NES.
2.)
Remove the lid so you can
see the "guts"
of your Nintendo.
3.)
Remove the metal shield
protecting the innards.
4.) You
will now be able to see
the black part where the
cartridge slides into the
machine. At the back of
it you will see the gold
colored receivers for the
cartridge. Get a soft
bristled toothbrush, that
you don't care about, and
dip it in rubbing
alcohol.
5.)
Slowly poke the bristles
into the slots where the
cartridge is inserted and
carefully scrub.
6.)
Reassemble your NES and
let the contacts dry off
before you use the system
