Mac IIsi - Mainboard problem ... part missing - repair help needed!?!

Posted by: gvollmann on 2018-07-20 12:27:17 Hi! I've just bought this IIsi and startet recapping it. My problem is a missing capacitor "C39". Please see the picture - how to repair it? Who knows how to fix it and is willing to share his knowledge with me?! ;-) Thx!

Posted by: 360alaska on 2018-07-20 12:43:51 Holy %^&%! Well...... This is what it's supposed to look like, start out by connecting that trace with a properly sized wire and see if it boots. That's not a capacitor that is typically recapped but we know one side leads to the trace and the other probably leads to ground. That little guy is probably a 1uf ceramic cap.
