ZX Spectrum 128k +2 Grey – NOT FOOD

In this episode of More Fun Fixing It, I take a look at a Sinclair ZX Spectrum 128K +2 “Grey” – the Amstrad-built machine that followed Sinclair’s iconic designs. This one came in with a note from its owner: “DC connection not good, black and white screen.” As it turns out, the repair list doesn’t stop there. I dive inside to check the condition of the motherboard, diagnose faults, and tackle the problems one by one. Along the way we find a stretched tape deck belt, some power issues, and a few interesting quirks in the design of this revision. If you’re into retro computing repairs, Spectrum history, or just enjoy seeing old hardware brought back to life, this one’s for you.
