You can try replacing the cartridge slot. The grinding might be coming from thing on the pins or in the slot itself.

Before replacing the slot, you could try a trick to clean the card reader pins first.
- get some isopropyl alcohol and thoroughly soak the contact points of any cartridge with a Q-tip.
- put the cartridge in the slot and insert/eject the cartridge repeatedly for about 3 minutes.
- try it again and see if that fixed it.
hope this helps!

it makes the grinding when on and sitting on a flat surface?
there are no real moving parts in the console so it seems like the grinding would be coming from the speakers probably.

No, it’s when I put a cartridge in on any surface
