The original issue turned out to be a faulty power supply. While I wait for those fuses to come in figured I would replace the board caps and add the GEM.

Why did you re-cap?
- Just preventive maintenance. N64 caps aren't prone to failure (since before the plague) but they are reaching 30 years old soon.
Can you give a link to the mod parts you used?
- Sure! What is currently installed.
  
  Pixelfx Gem N64 Variant Install documentation has a link to 3d print parts to do a no cut, which you also can buy from laserbear

  Thanks! One goal I have for this sub is for it to be a jumping off point for folks looking to learn about what’s out there. This extra info adds a lot to your post, rock on.
