won't fit in. Do I need a new console or just a new cable?

Are you sure it the right cable?

Yea I'm sure because it fit a few minutes before the problem happened. I don't know why Saturn made the AV out cable so complicated.

Were the cable's metal parts bend somehow, if yes can you carefully bend them back.

Hmm, I think they were actually. But they are so small, it's hard to even see them.

It's just a standard DIN cable, grab a pair of tweezers or a tooth pick and push the pins back into place.

Sure you're not trying to use a genesis 2/3 cable? I've seen that mistake happen about a zillion times. It shouldn't be all that difficult to get it installed.

Thanks, I was trying that but it just won't work. As soon as I try to put it in, they get bent again. I ordered another Saturn AV out cable. Hope it works, if not I guess I need to buy a new Saturn.

I'm guessing a bent pin
