All new, high-quality capacitor replacements to get your Atari 2600 console up and running again. Includes all of the electrolytic capacitors, styrene and chicklet replacement for the main and power boards. Voltage regulator replacement also included.
Capacitor Replacement Kit for 2600 console.
Each kit comes with a mini component map for the 2600 showing locations of capacitors and other components. We recommend you get a full-size, laminated map together with your kit.
We use high-quality capacitors in this kit from suppliers like Panasonic, Nichion, Kemet, Wurth Electronik. You will not see cheap, substandard capacitors in any of our capacitor replacement kits.
This kit requires soldering.
Please replace the thermal paste on your existing 7805 with the provided paste. You will need to wipe the existing paste off fully first.
Styrene capacitors are heat sensitive, do not use a heat gun and solder their legs by applying flux first to get a quick weld.
The green chicklet capacitor is replaced by an equivalent rectangular white film capacitor.
Note: In some cases we will provide a higher voltage capacitor than the listed, this is safe to install and is actually more reliable. For example we may supply a 16V 22uF capacitor instead of a 6.3V 22uF. We ensure that the capacitor can fit physically, so you don't have anything to worry about.
