Haha I know it would be smarter, but I don't feel like giving up just yet!
I'm going to get a diagnostics cartridge anyways, would that also see if there's a problem with the shifter?

If the shifter is part alive then you can do colour tests, but I suspect your missing the 16Mhz output, in which case the system wont even try to boot the cartridge. other than try a different shifter, or indeed MMU,GLUE etc, you can't do much without a scope. It may just be cheaper to get a new motherboard.
Can't try with my other Atari's shifter because it's not socketed, and I think it's best if i don't get that one involved :pexxos wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 11:16 pm If the shifter is part alive then you can do colour tests, but I suspect your missing the 16Mhz output, in which case the system wont even try to boot the cartridge. other than try a different shifter, or indeed MMU,GLUE etc, you can't do much without a scope.

It is purely guesswork that it is a dead shifter as you are unable to measure anything.. As it is a guess, it may well be wrong.
Oh damn i checked exxos' webstore already, must've looked over it...
