    Do you do anything to improve the internal cartridge pin connectors? Or replace the part?

    I think I took my apart many years ago and used a small screwdriver to bend the pins out a bit. Every game worked perfectly after that for a while, but it’s getting very touchy again…

      I cleaned the edge of the PCB with a pencil easer then ipa. After that I applied some dexoit for good measure. I also added some dexoit to the pins themselves.
