I recently received a Mac plus, it appeared to have a fan mod but other than that nothing done to it, but the crt will not come on, and when I tried to reflux it it still would not turn on, and had a low flup flup flup noise and still would not turn on, I found the scimarics of the anolog board and found non of the voltages on the board mached, idk what to do , just give it to me straight, is it going to be a cheap fix or is not fixable, thanks

Howdy!  Welcome! 🙂

Sounds like the analog board needs some new capacitors.

Grab a copy of the Dead mac Scrolls and check it out.

I looked at that... nothing seemed to fix it, I may just need to buy a new abloom board, idk I’ll keep on looking

let me know if you can find anything that might fix it thanks!

Well what exactly have you done to the system?

Have you replaced any components?

Have you made sure that everything is hooked up correctly between LB, A/B, CRT and Neck Board? If so, at this point I'd think posting high res pictures of both sides of the A/B and Logic Boards would be in order. Details of the fan mod might give some clues as to what might be awry as well.
