Caleb, did you reset the PMU?

"Resetting the Power Manager
PowerBook G3 Series (Bronze Keyboard)computers have a
reset button located on the back of the computer behind the
I/O door. Press the button once to reset the power manager."

The PMU is located (AFAIK) on the main logic board. There is a separate 
"Power Supply Card" (separate from the "Sound Card" which contains the 
power-in jack), located under the trackpad. I'm not sure exactly how (or 
if) its failure can lead to the symptoms you've described.

*Not not-all-that-helpful advice*
Really, the best thing to have in this sort of situation is a second 
identical complete working PowerBook. It makes things so much easier to 
have known-good working parts to swap in and out for testing purposes.
