What expansion card do you want to place? A Network card?

Remove them. They are of no use and damaging your system. I’m afraid they already did. Read about what you can do about these problems on our forum. You are not the first!

What a fascinating story. I think photo’s will make this story great! Most users here in this “Lisa section” of the 68kmla will have Lisa 2/5 or 2/10. But there will be few with a Lisa 1. No problem because together we can try to get your machine working.

Aha. Moved to here!

I have worked a lot with FastPath. So if the software works on your EtherGate it must be do-able!

Yes. The badge! That a detail I also love very much about this one. I don’t know why it was on. I have three ED. Only one has such a badge.

Cool trick! I directly watched a YouTube movie to understand it:

The ED is now fully restored! Working analog board, working motherboard and working MacSnap SCSI and memory expantion. Also I have been fighting the rust with a cheap multitool (at the Action a FREM ... 15,-) , vinigair and WD40. See the pictures here: Chassis soaked in acid. Used old blankets to keep wet. Used a Dremel /Multitool to remove the rest of the dust. Fine tuned with steel wool and WD40 Back in business!

Site is back online 24/7.

Will have some work on the rust!

Here is the Ed back to live. I had a donor MacSnap board with good RAM. It now works fine. Only have to fight the rust on the frame!

The ED is working again. A fellow Mac Liberator fixed the analog board. What is done: - J1, J2 and J3 with fresh solder. - R55 not 33Kohm but 45K ...so replaced - Q11 (2N3906) broken... replaced - CR15 en CR17 (6V2) broken...replaced Board started with these fixes, but currents are to low. 4,3 instead of 5V and 10,5 instead 12V, Not manageble by R59. It was U3 (opto). This was broken. Replaced. The board is now working fine!!!

There are more checkerboard errors in the guide. Could be one of these. But maybe someone of the forum recognize your error. That would be nice.

Ok. Update. The disk is still alive. See my other posting about the widget drive..

The pencil tip is great! Used it today on my widget which was build in today. With the help of a pencil push it can start.
