Hi Clark, I don't see such a fuse set-up in my 3400, if you're talking about the casing. My problem is that the 3400 will only boot normally if an external SCSI device is attached and powered up. Otherwise, the internal HDD stalls during the start-up (after the smiley face and during the bar

Tom, Try as I might I could not cross reference that PMU chip, let me Know if you do. Thanks Roger At this point, it looks like you will have to scrounge them from 5300 and 1400 motherboards. No big loss, those are much cheaper than 3400 mobos. I will attempt a transplant today. The

I just transplanted the PMU chip from a 5300 to my 180 Mhz 3400c board (exact same chip). Unfortunately it still has the same symptoms; the unit will bong, get the the question mark disk, with the cursor stuck in the upper left corner. No ADB function, nor does the trackpad. The HD spins up

Tom, If you're looking at the top side of the motherboard there 2 large high density chips near the center of the board, one of them is labeled PMU that is the bad chip, I also have several bad 3400 logic boards with this same problem, the primary symptom of the problem is usually that the

I was looking over my 3400 boards and one of them uses the same PMU chip as the 5300, while others use a -B version of the chip. So, I am hoping that all the 3400 can use either the 3400 or 5300 PMU chip. Mad Dog -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and... Small Dog

Have you confirmed it's the ADB controller and not the trackpad. The easiest way to do this is to plug in a mouse to the external ADB port. The trackpad works on another 3400 I have, so thats not the problem. The most likely failure of ADB is due to a blown fuse. There are several surface

After some further inspection, the 1400 motherboard seems to have the same -B PMU unit. Can someone else inspect some of thier 1400 mobos to confirm this ? Ebay usually has cheap 1400 mobos, so that can be an easy source for the IC. Mad Dog -- PowerBooks is sponsored by
