Classic II Black Screen

[bibilit]

Another repair, a Classic II, new caps all around, but except for the working fan the screen remained black and got no sound.

The board was cleaned but some goo was still present.

I removed the Egret 



Cleaned pads, soldered back and got a boot...only one  :-/

Then removed the nearby IC (U11), cleaned also legs then soldered back, and this time worked for real, including sound.

Wow. I didn't know dirty legs could cause that much trouble!

Another Mac that you saved! Yay! You must have stopped counting by now.
