I found the reason of the "switch-off" myself after hours.  The solution was: I heard a warning sound. :-) The Powerbook did not shut down, but it continued booting with totally dimmed screen. I have a compact flash card inside so it's a very silent PowerBook.  So I saw a problem, where...

Next problem with a PowerBook 5300ce.  I bought this PB 5 years ago but it had a leaking battery and did not boot. On the right side of the power supply board the connectors for the main battery were light blue, corroded and broke when I tried to clean them.  I cut off the leaking battery and...

A 1400cs worries me when testing my PowerBooks: When it is booting it screams terribly until the first extensions are loaded. Then it is silent. I sometimes also hear this sound from the speaker during operation. Can someone give me a hint, why?

These are SE fans.  The second one is easier to replace. 

I didn't see THAT before: "Made in USA": :)

Here's an additional view:

Ok. Thank you!

No, the next available old monitor is a Cinema display 22". :)   I gave away all my CRT monitors many years ago. I never loved these big and heavy CRTs and I honestly don't really need a big monitor for my second SE/30. Edit: and yes, the SE/30 is working again as before. :D

Bad news: with the card installed the SE/30 boots normally but doesn't show anything on the (white) screen. After that I connected an Apple Studio Display 15" (M4551 rev. B ) (b/w) VGA with 3 different adapters, but the Studio Display tells me "signal not showable" or "no computer signal"...

Ok, thanks I'll try it, when the file sharing session has finished. You made me curious! :)

You're sure that's a graphic card? So I don't connect a transceiver. :)

I was not brave enough to put it in the SE/30. :)   The card was outside (as a bonus) but the connector was mounted on the SE/30. Got the SE/30 as faulty, cleaned the logic board from spider webs and dead animals, removed the ram sticks and replaced them with known good ones and this Mac is...

On the card left below:

I got this card with a SE/30 and can't find it with Google, maybe it's a french card: 1990 memory plus  PN X10-S08 Modam se030 adaptor AMP 535022-1 9145 Yes it's called modam not modem. ;)

Are you sure you installed new caps? I see many old caps. 

Okay. Thank you techknight! 

Thank you! I bought this replacement battery a few years ago at a reasonable price from ebay, which works very well.  Sorry to say I can't find a new source to buy from.  https://www.amazon.co.uk/PowerSmart®-4200mah-Ni-MH-Battery-M5545LL/dp/B008S6Z1KW

Ok, I found the transformer: Halo FD02-101G https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/706/halo electronics_discrete-filterdil-10baset-1217383.pdf

Is the the transformer the part near the 10base-T connector? An IC is also labeled "HALO". Hmm, I'll look for a hypothetic 10BASE2 to 10BASE-T transceiver... :)

Can you please specify which component you mean?
