Need help with an non-working cartridge

Hi all I wonder if you can help me. I purchased from a local shop in the UK a, don't laugh, a E.T cartridge cheap with other games only as I have always wanted to see what the fuss was about. So I brought it home and tried it and it was either black screen or color bars and blocks or whatever. 

 

So I give it several cleans with alcohol and a q tip and I did manage to get it to flash colour blocks, bars and long beeps  or crashed sound effect. I cleaned it about 10 times, and I tried to use a eraser on the contacts. and still the same. But I couldn't get to the side nearest the casing side as it was to tight.

 

The contacts now look really clean but the game don't work. My system is fine as it loads everything else up so any advice, as I don't fancy taking the cart apart in case I mess the label up to get the screw out.  thanks in advance.

 

Anthony
