Hi everyone,
i have finally decided to haul out my Macintosh II, which I acquired on New Year’s Eve, 2000 (for a little background). It once worked, but slowly bit the dust about eight years ago. I finally have time, resources, and equipment to work on it.
first, I know I need new batteries. Second, a few traces appear damaged by cap goop. Third, all the electrolytic need replacing.
does anyone have a good diagram for what caps are what? The surface mount ones have no labels at all. Can’t start without that. Also, any good resource for replacing the soldered batteries with holders/ new 1/2 AA 3V ones?
