Problem with SMS Adapter

My friend has a Game Gear and an SMS adapter. The Game Gear is perfect shape, but for some reason there's an odd flickering of the backlight or screen whenever SMS games are played. It's almost as if the Game Gear is thinking that there's no cartridge inserted.

Is there any way around this?
 
Does the game play at all... or does the screen just flicker white to black? If its flickering white to black the converter may be damaged in some way, pins worn out, burnt out... an assortment of things. From the looks of the device if you can find the problem it shouldn't be that hard to fix as long as your handy with a solder iron.

If the game is playing but resetting during the flicker it may be because the connection part that connects into the gg is bad.

If the game is playing but just flickering and not resetting: I have no clue.

That's exactly what's happening.
