Plan C | eBay C64: Numerous Faults & Repairs (250407) @Plan-C | Uploaded August 2019 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
This C64 had been in the wars. After cleaning and fixing some obvious faults, it lead me a merry dance, despite repeatedly passing diagnostic tests! The diag cart reported the bad RAM (which I should have paid more attention to) but missed a flaky PLA and a glitchy SID.

Pre-powerup tests 00:35
Graft new leg onto VIC II Chip 02:38
Out of Memory Piggyback RAM tests 03:44

Strange PLA graphics issue 06:56
