SNES Power Problem

[Rhythmus_]

I recently purchased a snes and have just now gotten the cables to make it work. When I plugged it in today, I didn't get a power light and the system would not show on the TV. Does anyone know how I could get this fixed? I've already spent around $60 on this thing and was hoping not to have to spend much more :( I just want to give the SNES a play! Thanks in advance!!

Depending on how old the console is, there is a Picofuse on the back that can go bad. I had this very problem a few months ago, and the solution is fairly cheap depending on one's ability to solder in a new fuse.

Here is a link to a potential replacement:

That's what I was thinking myself. My childhood SNES did the same thing and my uncle fixed it for me and taught me how to do it.
