When mine broke like this, I hacked at it for a few minutes and then gave up. I found the wire position where it worked and put a rubberband around it. I leave it in one spot and it has worked this way for the last year. Meanwhile, I got AppleCare to send me a new one. Don't get your shop and possibly your hands all messed up working on that thing because a new one is only $20 from Sun Remarketing. Don't forget to order another power cord for $5 if you want to continue using your old one, as I do. Jerry in reply to.... My power adapter has a loose wire. (Which I suspect is the reason the fuse blew--the backlight flickered pretty badly when the power cable was jiggled.) Has anyone opened one of these things up--do you have to cut it open, or are there tiny screws under the tiny feet? If you have to cut it open, what's the best procedure?
