hi everybody,
so i have a powerbook g4 aluminum. so i yanked the power adaptor cord. and so it is really messed up. the plug is just one thing, but i think the internal connector is broken, 'cause when it's plugged in it charges for a few seconds, then it doesn't. regardless of moving it or not. and this keeps going on and on.
i plan to take it to the service, but i need it badly this week.
so i thought: 'hey, i could charge it manually or connect ac power directly to to where the battery is attached.' the most helpful picture i found was this.
so i connected an older powerbook adaptor (with the same output voltage etc.) this way directly, but _nothing_ happened. no little green lights going up, no nothing.
please, could somebody provide me some advice or maybe a nice pic with the schematics of the connector?
i am in urgent need, please reply promptly if you can..
