Pinout is here:

I just drew this out because I couldn't find one. Maybe some of you could use it.

Does anyone know where I can find a Mac Plus analog board photo with cap placement like the reference pics on recapamac.com.au?

Yes! I removed the metal mechanism and only soaked that part. To remove the top mechanics, you have to remove the PCB on the bottom (3 or 4 screws) then underneath that will be 4 more (longer) screws that release the metal part. JDW has a video on YouTube that shows how to do it.

You shoulda seen it when I took it out. Everything was seized up, no eject, couldn't even slide a disk in. I soaked it in alcohol and then scrubbed it in Windex. I used white lithium grease on the metal parts and silicon lube on everything that touches plastic. Now it's super quiet and moves...

I was offered an analog board by CC_333 so I'm gonna go that route and save this one to fix later. In the meantime I got my 128k and my 512k running beautifully. I had to take apart, scrub and re-grease the 400k floppies in both.

I don't have anything but a multi-meter. I may just look for an analog board and donate this one to someone who can fix it.

I fired up the Plus after reflowing the solder joints on the analog board. I get a beep and my Floppy EMU lights up steady now. Unfortunately, the screen stays black. I'm guessing this points to the flyback. Are there some tests I can run to see if that is in fact, the issue? I see only one...

I have a Mac II with no hard drive in it. I want to restore it as close to original as possible. Does anyone have a photo of the original drive mounting method in a Mac II?

All refurbed and ready to use!

Thank you, that's what I was looking for.

How can I tell that? What I'm after is what pins should I put the multimeter on?

Unfortunately, I care about all of them. Is there no way to test directly from the pins on the psu molex?

Retrobrite day! I figured I'd do some extra things since I already had the tubs filled.

I have a TDK and an Astec PSU for my 2 LCIIs. Both are completely dead. I could just re-cap and hope for the best but Id' like some guidance on testing voltages with a multi-meter. How can I tell what the voltages are coming out of the PSU? Also, I have lots of hardware reference books but none...

I've already done a search on ebay.

That link is no good.

I'm looking for a mounting bracket just to keep it from touching metal while I'm using it.

I'm seeing an analog board on eBay that looks clean, I may just go for that. If nothing else, I'll have a spare.

After some cleanup:
