Working on a Mac SE. It seemed to work fine, when I got it about a month ago. Tried it the other night and had some issues - it would chime, and chime, and chime, then display Sad Macs. I didn't get around to taking it apart till now, found a battery in the early process of leaking. Removed the battery case and cleaned the board off with alcohol. While there are a few sketchy traces, they actually ohm out fine.
Now my issue is:
[*]When I start it "warm", ie just on for a while, I see a checkerboard for an instant and then it seems to POST normally to the flashing ?
I'm inclined to think that this issue is related to capacitors in the power supply. This seem like a good interpretation?
Now my issue is:
- When I turn it on cold, I get a checkerboard.
- If I leave it on the checkerboard, it suddenly chimes after a minute or two
- Often, it will chime multiple times, then gets to the flashing ?
CRT flickers with each time
