Radius Accelerator Plus 16 help
Posted by: Kothnaaken on 2022-07-25 23:31:56
I have a Radius Accelerator for my Mac Plus but it does not work. I can see the large electrolytic cap bulging a bit on the bottom but there's a mark where it says the value so I can't tell if its 1000uf or 1800uf. There is also a tantalum cap that while not obviously bad I would like to replace, is it safe to replace it with an electrolytic of the same value? I also would like to know if anyone knows where the grounding springs go on the bottom of this board, I took a picture before I removed it but its really hard to see now. The last question regarding this board is if the fan and power in connector side matters since the trace appears to go to both (of course making sure polarity is correct).
