== Maintenance & Common Faults == * '''PSU failure''' – original “brick” still prone to over-voltage; modern protected PSUs (C64 Saver, new-build bricks) are strongly recommended. * '''Yellowed case''' – C64C plastics are ABS and will photo-degrade; [[Retrobrite|retrobright]] procedures restore colour but weaken plastic if over-done. * '''8580 SID shortages''' – originals are scarce; ARM-SID / SwinSID-Ultimate provide excellent substitutes and can emulate both 8580 & 6581. * '''RAM & colour-RAM''' rarely fail on the short board; the next most common faults are the 8701 and the RF modulator solder joints.
