Thanks for the info GiGaBiTe, I'll get on it when I have 5 mins. As far as power goes I am using my bench power supply as mostly these...

No, no power on, I'd fry myself and the board... Big bang etc... I'm wondering about the transistor located above the cap. As far as...

It's possible but somewhat unlikely for ceramic capacitors to short. I'm hoping you're not doing that continuity test with the power...

Had an hour today so set up and started probing and checking about the board. Power supply connected and still we beep on beep off like...

So... tried the different cpu module but still shuts down. Almost a beep on beep off scenario.. Cpu module removed and the motherboard...

So quick check, the 23305002AB is 1.7v core voltage where as the original cpu module 30005002AA is 1.6v core voltage. So I'm guessing...

So buzzed the caps at c14 and c35 on the powerboard as they were shorted to ground and before I removed and did this I followed the...

I'll dig out some removal gear and buzz them when I get the chance. Thanks for the quick reply.

So... maybe scratch the previous post. As I stated I went around buzzing capacitors on the MMC-1 board, the motherboard and then...

So....... We now have power after a part recap of the dc/dc powerboard.. but.... We are on then off powerswitch wise...😥 It's like We...

They could always be given a second chance at life and become a static museum exhibit. Mine served as a useful serial terminal. It...

Damn Mark, I know how that feels. I'm unsure how to proceed with the 110 without removing chips and connectors where the corrosion...

Found some hidden corrosion under the pcmcia slots.. how it got there I've no idea.. Sneaky, I've cleaned it best I can. Will rebuild...

I'm thinking the smd and the brown one unless that too is a polymer as I'm unsure. Gotta check the power boards in the dstn screen and...

Lucky guy, I'm happy that at least yours survived the Varta purge..lol.. Unfortunately for me I think all 3 systems have died after...
