Hi I was wondering if I can get some help with my old wii that's been bricked for a while. I got the wii back at launch in the US. I used Brawl to homebrew it and eventually put Project M on it shortly before it was C&D. It would get pretty hot especially in a no AC home in the summer and one day the wii just would turn on if you hit the power button, flash the disc drive, try to take a disc, and the display on the TV through the RCA cable would flicker right when the power was hit but stayed as a black screen.
I have a second wii that the SD card came out of I'm pretty sure I HB'd to back up a failing AC GC memory card in 2017
Currently on the SD Card I have directories for: apps, bootmii, MCBackup, Old Wii, private, Wiisaves
A boot.elf file and installer.log
The log references a HackMii v1.2 installation from 2017
In the Old Wii folder I have directories for: apps, codes, config. private, privatehbc, project M
A boot.elf, gameconfig.txt, and installer.log files
The log references a HackMii v0.8 installation from 2011 and ends with
found 2 valid blockmaps found 2 valid blockmaps using generation 7
boot2 blocks: 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 boot2bin @5,0 (blocks=0,1 - bootmii=0)

tmd ends at 0x80830f2c, data starts at 0x80830f60
bootmii version = '1.3'
Ok for boot2 install
preparations done!
[33;1mThe test results are in:
[37;1m Using IOS versions: Installer: 58, HBC: 58
The Homebrew Channel: [32;1mCan be installed[37;1m
BootMii: [32;1mCan be installed[37;1m

I'm pretty sure I just made the Old Wii folder and moved everything into that directory so I could HB the 2nd Wii
Old Wii/apps has homebrew_browser, projectm, save-extractor, save-installer
Old Wii/codes has a RSBE01.gct file
Old Wii/config has WiiXplorer
Reading through the log I don't think I installed a boot2 so I'm thinking she's permanently bricked but if anyone can give me some advice on what to do I'd appreciate it.
I have a multimeter, and hakko soldering iron if I need to go under the hood. My computer from back then is also available so I might have old files that were moved on/off the card.
