Greetings,
I have dug out an old PowerBook 160, and a PowerBook 165 from storage.
I have one original power adapter cable between the two of them. (I think it belonged to the 160)
There seems to be absolutely no power at all on either of the units using this cord. No little electronic click sound. No boot. No nothing.
I have left the power adapter plugged in to wall socket for some time, trying to gauge if I can feel any warmth on the brick. It's completely cold. Is this normal? Or should it be warm when plugged into power?
My point is I'm trying to determine if the power adapter unit is bad (buy a new AC adapter cord), rather than the internal power manage unit / fuse / PRAM battery, etc.?
Thanks for any thoughts.
