I have posted a couple of times on here about my IIci with dead Nubus slots. I am downsizing and wondering what to do with the unit, and came across this on Reddit:
Anyone here seen this problem and found this the solution? Two small (and inexpensive) components near the Nubus slots are said to be the problem, with one of them in particular being susceptible to capacitor leakage because of its proximity to a 47µF / 16v cap, and we know what those can look like after 30 or 40 years of nights out on the town.
I am wondering whether to try one more heave in fixing this thing, or to part it out. The strange thing about it is that the machine appears to work perfectly otherwise. It just has no Nubus slots.
