Locate the 10.240mhz crystal labeled X1 on the main pc board.
It's the only crystal completely surrounded in wax and is stamped 10.240 on the side.
Once you find X1 you'll need to located both leads of the crystal on the solder side of the board.
Then unsolder the two leads and make sure the leads stick up far enough above the pads.
Then resolder the leads and test again.
If that doesn't work try replacing the crystal with a new Galaxy DX replacement 10.240mhz crystal, not a generic copy. |
