Master System Just Died?

[liamq]

So forever now I've been looking for a master system so I can play the orginal phantasy star and just last weekend I went to a swap meet and got a SMS with phantasy star for $25. I tested it out and it wouldnt read the cart at first, just gave me that  software error so I cleaned the contacts with rubbing alcohol and a clean toothbrush a few days ago and it still needed to be taken in and out multiple times but i got it to play. I finally sat down tonight to play and I got up to check the game guide and then the system just turned off without warning. It won't power back on and no lights or anything come on. I'm using the official powerbase ac adapter and all official cords and carts. I tried using my genesis 1 ac adapter but it still does nothing. Did I do something wrong. Thanks.

Yeah don't but the Genesis one in there. Did you try jiggling around the SMS adaptor? That might sound simple, but I've had a few that had that issue and I'd have to twist them just right to get it to work. Toothbrush, not a good idea either.
