Is anyone here familiar with these? Having a few issues with one that won't power up.
Some details about the problem:
Some details about the problem:
- I am using the correct 45W adapter.
- The green ring light appears; this remains solid IF the battery is not connected.
- If the battery is connected, the ring light goes amber but then goes out after a few seconds, then no light at all.
- If I try to power on with the battery removed, when green light is present, the fans start and the optical drive tries to initialise for about 1 second, and then power stops.
- If I try to power on with the battery connected, while the amber light is still on for that few seconds, the behaviour is as per point 4 above.
- If I try to power on after the ring light has gone off, nothing happens at all.
- I have disconnected the PRAM battery.
- I have reset PMU.
- I have inspected the DC-in board; it visually looks OK but otherwise I cannot tell if something may be up with it.
- I have tried leaving it plugged in to try and give the battery some charge - but the ring light goes off when I do this, so I am not sure its doing anything anyway.
- Powering up with the optical drive disconnected.
- Disconnecting the Airport card and keyboard and seeing if it powers up without those.
