It just keeps clicking away. I'll check the voltage on the PRAM and see if it's low - that's a cheap fix and would need to be done anyway. What's a good online source for new cheap LC PRAM batteries?
Also, any thoughts on the PSU? What are the output voltages and pins? (I have a lot of PC power supplies in the garage and wouldn't mind rigging one to test out the LC.) And, if I do open it up, are there dangers or serviceable parts inside? I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
