My nintendo 64 light comes on but the screen stays blank
I bought a used Nintendo64 on EBAY. I plugged Donkey Kong 64 into it, and screen stayed black, although the power light was on. I discovered that you need a memory expansion pak for Donkey Kong 64. AND, I cleaned the game contacts with a q-tip and rubbing alcohol, then wiped with my clean handkerchief. The TV screen did indeed then state that I needed the expansion pak as previously stated. SO, I received my Super Mario 64. I inserted it, turned console on, and voila, nothing but black screen. SOOOO, I took out my trusty q-tip and rubbing alcohol, cleaned the game, wiped dry with hanky, inserted game, turned on system........................and it works. Try cleaning game carefully with q-tip and wipe dry, then insert game and try it. It worked for me. Thanks

Clean the control deck and the cartridges. Check the input cable to the TV.
Hope this helped :)

i hadnt played mine in a while, pulled it out, turned it on, and it worked once but i forgot to put the controller in, so i turned it off and put it in, turned it back on but the screen stays blank, even though the red light is on....im guessing its either something wrong with the cords or internal..?
