I've NEVER seen this FAULT in an AMIGA

About

Hello, I'm Glen and this is my YouTube channel Casual Retro Gamer or CRG for short because Causal Retro Gamer sucks as a name and its now too late to change it. I spend most my time looking at vintage computer or console hardware, trying to fix broken bits or building new expansions and a lot of it is Amiga focused but I do try to sneak other other systems from time to time. I don't know everything, in fact I'm sure plenty would tell you I don't have a clue but that's all part of the fun here on CRG. Its about taking a laid back approach to this hobby and just figuring it out as we go. I purposely used WE there because I do reply on the community a fair bit in helping with my journey through this hobby. If that sounds like something you'd like to help with why not take a look and maybe you'll find something you enjoy.

Video Description

This CD32 came in for repair because its not playing any audio and not spinning discs. Given its age it needs a recap but is that all that's wrong with it? The actual reason for the fault was something unbelievable that I've never seen before.
