Thx both - I was looking for those popped caps but it's good to know they may fail quietly and w o fanfare.

I've had the wildly blown version once so I didn't think that was the issue - I think I still have these caps so I'll try this. Thx!

Hi I have a common Asante MacCon Ethernet card that came in an SE/30 originally stacked on top of a Diimo. The Diimo is missing two caps but when I plug the card into the PDS slot (the logic board was just recapped by me) - the entire machine just clips, clicks and won't power on anything...

This one goes w the Novy btw not the Gemini which will require the PSU w the same connector.

Well this one is where the 030 board gets plugged in - the board into this fan unit - then this gets plugged in presumably from the vacant connector w the one pin a bit wider than the rest. Do you see the connector now here (not the one w a cord plugged in)? It's the same kind as the psu we've...

Well one pin is farther off the side - it's ab the width of molex with on offset pin

Here it is - I haven't turned it on yet - but what a mess underneath this thing. The crystal is rated at 80MHZ fwiw.

Thanks for the tip! Btw - what's the cable called that runs off the Meanwell? It's the same 4-pin connector on my fan pictured above w one of the pins set off to one side...

Yes fortunately the card is okay - the Plus really gave me a light show though.

Full disclosure - i tinkered w running power from CRx and started a moderate electrical fire inside my Plus. I have a different problem now :) I'm in timeout until I can find a manual.

Ah it appears cr24 and cr25 are options.

I have one w a fan too. Im missing the powercord for it - but it also has to clip In...

Hi I have a couple of 030 Mac Plus accelerators and both hAve a way to grab extra power via red and black clips that I recall clip on to a resistor on the power sweep board. Does anyone know which resistor you can do this with? I just can't find a manual around this task.

But wasn't the neighbor shielding function kind of Wow - looks like I need to reshield a whole bunch of Max IIS and IIFXs :)

But wasn't the neighbor shielding function kind of debunked?
