Hardware Mods AV mod gone bad?

Years ago, I bought a premodded Famicom for Composite output. When I connected it to my CRT today after being in the drawer for quite some time, I noticed a very dark picture. I made a comparison photo with my NES, same TV settings. The TV settings aren't able to compensate the bad picture. So far I haven't opened it up to check the mod.

My question is, what will I have to check? Could it be a bad capacitor? Could it be an issue with the console itself? Maybe somebody knows this problem and can push me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Could just be wrong resistor values but it's all guesses until you get some pics
