Atari 2600 Dark Vader Repair & Video Mod

I received the Atari 2600 “Dark Vader” version for repair.

The problem was a black screen and since it had happened several times before i was sure the 6504 CPU was dead but in this case is the TIA dead.

I also made a composite video mod by removing the RF modulator and a couple of components. I used a 3.5mm female jack as the audio/video output, which is less invasive than two female RCA.
