it could be that the leads from the mod chip fell off.

It's possible to brick any game system - even going back to the atari 2600 days and beyond lol.

few things just came to mind

1. RF cord could have got the "pin" broken off in tv (if you use one)
2. RF or AV cord(s) could have failed.
3. could have overheated - which can lead to the motherboard stretching (b/c of heat) and broken a vital connection to the video out.
