Hi!
I picked up an imac Bondi Blue this past week, and managed to get everything restored and working (dead hard drive replaced with n SSD, OS loaded), with the exception of the CD-ROM drive. It's D-E-D dead.
The drive doesn't spin up, or eject when the button is pushed. Does anyone have any advice on fixing it?
I see a couple of capacitors I may replace and see if that makes any difference.
Thanks,
Cam
Edit: I should have mentioned it's a tray loading drive, not slot loading.
