I was able to whittle a bamboo kebab stick and adjust the P1 so that the voltage on the 5V line is reading about 4.8v now... however, the problem persists after a cold boot. Guess next thing I'll have to do is replace the components mentioned in this thread earlier,... any thoughts on what one...

I don't but i'll look at buying one! The same item from Amazon Canada is over $33 8-o . Pffffft I suppose as long as it's non-conductive and the same size as the longest one in that ST-13 kit, I should be good to go. Will having low 12V cause issues too? It was reading about 11.5 V on the 12v...

I checked the 12V lines too, and it's also low. Pin 7 & 8 are reading about 11.5 V

Measured pin 6 and it's reading about 4.73 V.  Quite below 5V. Is that well within range of adjusting PP1? Haven't replaced anything but caps, none of the Diodes or the DIPs have been replaced, just all of the capacitors.

This looks similar to an issue i'm having with my fully re-capped Classic II. On a cold boot up, no bong at first, and a dim glow from the screen, then a few "clicks" (from the flyback transformer?) and then the screen lights up normally.... and a few seconds later a bong!  But, the screen has...

Hi there! I've have Classic II in the process of being restored, board has already been recapped and was working flawlessly, was waiting on weather to retro bright the case parts, when I went to turn it on it now has a odd 'delay', where nothing happens for a bit... but some fan noise. After a...

I have a SE/30 board in a similar scenerio.... It' has a few dead VIA's and pads missing from one of the TI SOIC-16's, which I've gotten a replacement for. However, yours looks a bit rustier than mine did.... I washed the board with a tiny bit of dish soap and lukewarm water and just let it...
