Macintosh Portable backlit board question
Posted by: 80sboy on 2020-04-06 21:55:19
It’s been quite a time in quarantine....fixed up a IIfx, Color Classic, SE/30, etc...

  recapped my backlit model but can not get the floppy drive to work, it crashes the system. I have a second backlit motherboard I’m ready to recap but notice that Q4 has a missing pad....looking at the schematics it appears that Q4 was for power for external video, is this part necessary to replace? If so where can I run a jumper wire?
 

  This part was missing on the board and when I went to clean up the pads I noticed that the pad was missing. How would this have been burned off?

thanks for any advice!

Ok scraped back the track and used some copper tape to repair this. Waiting on an order or some transistors so I can finish this board and see what happens...
