Reset Issue with N64

Post by /n64 »

I ordered a tested N64 off of ebay recently
The first few days it was working fine, but then I got the issue where the screen will flicker black and then reset and random times. It seems like it's a common issue, when I looked it up online I tried almost all of the solutions. The power LED isn't flickering or anything, so it should be getting enough power. I also switched out my normal jumper pak for a new expansion pak and still had the same issue. I cleaned both the jumper and expansion paks with isopropyl alcohol and it didn't fix it
I've ordered a screwdriver to open it up and try to clean it. If that doesn't work, does anyone know any other solutions or is the console just dying?
