Macintosh Portable m5126 LCD Cable Orientation

[Kevinlenane]

Hi - I recently got my m5126 logic board recapped and the person that did it was able to get it working but w the sound chip seemingly not working. I got the board back and now none of it will power on. Does anyone know if the LCD cable has an orientation when it plugs into the board? I had to have the cable remade and thought maybe that may have caused a lack of power. I have a fresh batt, fresh 9v and the correct PSU. On that note - would anyone be willing to take a look at an entire 5126 for a fee to help get it working?

If I remember correctly the connector on the cable is not keyed (the connector on the board is at least) so it should be possible to plug it in backwards, but the flex cable is quite stiff so you would have to really bend it or twist it or have the entire display backwards to plug it in backwards.

Not turning on could be a lot of things. Have you been able to check the fuse at the very least?
