Macintosh Classic doesn't work after recap!
Posted by: iZier Museum on 2022-07-06 07:51:23 Hi everybody! Unfortunately I'm having some troubles with Macintosh Classic. I did a Recapp on the analog board; but unfortunately my Mac doesn't work. There's only flashing on the screen without noise. Take a look on this videos! I hope that we can find a solution together! Tks a lot for the support; Ederson iZier Museum
Posted by: 3lectr1cPPC on 2022-07-06 07:58:28 Start by checking voltages from the analog board, you may need to adjust the voltage pots to get it up/down to spec. You can check on the hard drive power connector. Have you recapped the logic board?

I'm new on this universe.; can you inform how to adjust the voltage pots? tks a lot for your help.

Posted by: joshc on 2022-07-06 09:06:18 You will need to recap the logic board as well. In your second video, it looks like the picture is stable and the crap on the screen is probably caused by a logic board fault. But yeah, before anything else, recap the logic board and check the voltages from the analog board - either from the molex connector for the hard drive or from the floppy port. That's with the machine switched on.
