Color Classic Board help
Posted by: captjon320 on 2022-04-12 16:20:57
I had a friend drop off a color classic board with some really bad cap leakage. I am trying to save the board so I took the caps off and everything looks okay except down at c9 and c10. I can put solder mask over the exposed traces at c9 and the pad that was gone at c10 is the negative side, so attaching that to a ground will not be difficult. However, I don't have another color classic board so I don't know where the traces go under the damaged area if I need to repair them. If someone could snap some clear pictures of this area on their board and shed some light, I would appreciate it.

Here's a pic from Recap A Mac and I also have a schematic here for you as well.1649824594582.png

Doh! I should of thought of that as I use it as a resource when I recap. Thanks for the schematic, hopefully I can save this board.

I think it’s salvageable, let us know how it went.
