Hi everyone. Hope someone can tell me what's wrong.
I have this 7502 PS1 that boots and works perfectly normal from a cold boot. I can play like 1 hour or more. If and only if I turn off the console after the play time and then I turn it back on the console won't boot at all. No sign of life. I have to wait for it to cool down a little. The PSU is perfectly fine since I tried 2 different ones. It's like there is something that when is in a cold state allow the console to start but when it's been used for some time and reach a warmer state and turned it off I have to wait to turn it back on again.
Also if I simply turn it on and off repeatedly when it's cold the console works just fine since it doesn't have time to get warm.
The board seems in pristine condition (as the shell too actually) and there is no mod whatsoever.
Some bad capacitor?
