Thank you for the guidance! I am nervous because I just completed a recap job on an SE/30 and that board was a mess. Very fshy smelling and some of the pads were damaged. I was able to get it up and running but it needed a lot of cleaning.
I did the same as you and looked for some pictures...
I decided to take the logic board out and investigate the caps. Don't look bad but the SMD electrolytics need replacing...any recommendations on what to replace them with? Here's a picture and a list.

Hi there!
I have a performa 6300 CD, which works well with my multi sync monitor. However, on my workstation, I have a VGA compatible display. Can someone tell me what I would need to get this computer to work with the VGA display?
Still working on my SE/30.

Honestly, If the problem is somewhere in the board, I'm probably out of my depth. I'm getting better at trouble shooting, but that may just be too much for me. If it was free that would be one thing, but for $75, I should be able to find a better board, no?
It behaves the same for multiple drives in multiple SCSI cables. It sounds like the problem. It’s either in the logic board or the power supply. It seems like it may be too big of a project for me.
Hi there! I want to upgrade my Performa 600. I read online that one upgrade path is to get a logic board from a Centris 650. I think I have found one, but the seller reports that one the Centris gets warm it no longer boots from the hard drive. He has replaced the HDD and SCSI cable and gets...
Thanks for the advice. Is it possible to use the multimeter to determine polarity of a cap? I'm thinking put it on high Ohms, connect black prob to negative, red prob to posiive and see if I get a reading...is this correct?
Hello! A friend and I just finished a recap of an SE/30. We did the analog board, logic board and PSU. Finally went to test and cap at C7 of logic board burned up and exploded. Not sure what I did wrong. I have pictures that verify that I oriented it in the right direction. There was a lot...
Thank you for confirming what I thought. Yes, I am using an LC II as a floppy drive tester. I have a drive that’s driving me insane! It will only read prodos formatted disks! I have been fiddling with the alignment for days and I can’t get it to read hfs. I’ve given up working on it and was...
