I just did that I opened it up as well and cleaned the insides. I used rust remover, windex ( which is supposed to clean the top game cart sold effectively on the nes one at least) and rubbing alcohol.
Not a single thing changed from what I originally described.
Is there is certain way to clean it or do something at this stage? I'm using an first released snes and a 2 release genie (dashes appear) so I don't think its that.
I paid quite a bit, embrassed to say how much, from this gaming store, I'm a bit pissed off since it was claimed it was tested from this big name store, which is why I actually didn't ebay it, they went out of their way to bag and it print, "tested and refurbished" on the packaging. The least they could have done was check it.
