Hey, I am currently trying to restore an SE/30. When I got it, it showed a repeating cursor pattern (see images) and made no sound at all when turned on.
Since then I have recapped it and tried fixing some corroded pads of UC8 and OD8.
After this it started making a chime (the same one this one does: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKJszJMRZM4), but the pattern remains.
I have read the Classic Mac Repair Resources document and without the chime, the closest description would suggest a broken RP2 filter IC that has to be replaced.
Does anyone have experience with this particular failure mode and can confirm this or suggest a different path to take from here?
Thank you in advance!
