Hi, I have this imac, which the customer say just die overnight, so I have remove the lcd, tried to change psu, press power button, still doesnt turn on, im not really familiar with imac board, should I take it out first or can I troubleshoot it in the case connected with psu ?
so I change c9450 because of pp3v3_s5 short, now imac is up and running normally.
i have 2 imac screen which i forget is working or not, then I plugged the bad one, and L9100 blowed up, the question, can I just use solder blob there / wire ?
any shipping is very long in my third world country (
How can you power up a machine, testing unknown LCD, without checking diode mode first???
If there is still short, what do you think will happen if you solder direct wire (or blob)?
If no short, use some tiny magnet wire; 0.05-0.1mm should be good enough.
Bad cable.. So i change L9000 and use another cable and screen turn on fine
. But i notice that, when i plug power cable, fan start ramping to max speed, but if i turn it on, the fan goes.normal ( not maximum speed), if I shut it down, the fan goes maximum speed again
I use 220 ohm ferrite bead from 820-3476 L8300..
voltage is 11.75v on pin 1 2 7 8 of Q7950
U7950 pin 1 : 11.75v
pin 2 : 0v, because in s5 state ? ( im not turning it on yet )
pin 5 :11.75v
pin 6 : 11.45v ( pc is not turned on yet, but there's voltage there, so do I change both or only U7950 ?
pin 7 :10v
pin 8 : 0v
