What power cord does Intellivision 3 use?

Postby megoninja1 » January 9th, 2009, 6:46 pm

Hey guys,

I found an intellivision 3 with no power cord. My question is, does it need a power pack like the intellivision 2? If not then what can I use as a replacement?

I really need help with this.
thanks

The power cord is hardwired to the system. The link below is info on the system.

I forgot to mention the power supply is internal. The Intellivision 2 has a external power supply.

so if it's missing what the heck am I supposed to do? I thought I could just plug another type of cable into the back of it.

Is the system just screwed then?
thanks for the help so far.

Intellivision 3 has a internal power supply. The Intellivision 2 has a external power supply.

This place will be able to fix the system.

You can also try fixing this yourself with this part.

I don't think it would be that difficult to replace the part. Email this person to make sure this part will work.  I e-mail him also and I will tell you what he said. The Intellivision 1 and Intellivision 3 are very similar, so I think it would work. Just remember that the system you have could be defective and the power cord was taken off because it was a broken machine in the beginning.

I will receive so flax from this, but I think the Intellivision2 is the best Intellivision because it is not hardwired. You can replace the controllers and power supply easy.

You need to open your Intellivision 3 and see it the parts are similar to the ones on e-bay.
Good luck at getting your Intellivision back to working condition.
