was it an rgb mod? i think some systems had a chip that was not fully compatible Note – don’t get the Model number 3006-05A made in Thailand as it doesn’t contain the Sony CTA chip you need to RGB mod the system – look for the Model number 3006-05 from China, that has the CTA chip. It looks like there were some revisions – the serial number of the Chinese one (you want) of mine was about 110 million, the Thailand one was around serial number 230 million. moddedbybacteria.wordpress.com/sega-master-system-2-sms/I'm sure there are people much more knowledgable than me if this doesnt solve it |

There's a hardware issue with the original Mega Drive that leads to jailbars through RCA and SCART so an issue with a particular chip here sounds feasible.
I'd expect it to be uniform bars, vertical or horizontal. If it's more of a wavy herringbone effect, it's likely a bad connection/interference/knackered cable.

I tried this mod and it worked but the screen flickered at first. I then noticed that if i removed the control pad which was a megadrive pad i got no flickr. I then replaced the megadrive pad with a normal pad and the flickr as gone, i just get a very occasional hardly noticeable flickr. So i think its the 16v capcitor, should i try going higher? In the video instructions it says 16v but i noticed he actually uses a 10v i tries doing this but the flickr was worse. Im now happy with the mod but i would prefer using a megadrive pad... m.youtube.com/watch?v=7kBr8gGGSrY |

Assuming you can get the capacitors on ebay? Just do it and if it dies get another.
