Sega Saturn Repair - No Power, No Drive Response… What’s Wrong?

About this video

Dan investigates a Japanese Sega Saturn that will not power up, leaves the CD drive still, and shows only faint signs of life, working through the faults found.

Good to know: Mains voltage inside the power supply, and capacitors stay charged after unplugging. Never look into a powered laser. Soldering means burns and fumes.

Why watch it

The maker says this Japanese Saturn was abused in its past life, so the video works through several faults, not one. The maker's tool links may carry affiliate tags.
