Yesterday, I recapped my 1.25 GHz eMac (logic board no. 820-1591-A). However, I lifted pads on two of the capacitors (C473, C447) because I'm a n00b at soldering, and since it's a multilayer board, I have no idea where the traces lead. Would anyone happen to have schematics, or be able to help me route bodge wires? | Posted by: herd on 2024-10-21 06:35:02
You should be able to connect to, or at least measure, the remaining vias. On each capacitor, one probably goes to ground. | Posted by: Hālian on 2024-10-21 11:47:01

Yeah, I've been checking the negative leg of each capacitor, but am not sure where to route the other end of the bodge wires, lol. | Posted by: SparrowRat on 2024-10-22 06:22:27
Should be able to scrape back solder mask and solder to the traces | Posted by: Hālian on 2024-10-23 23:19:22
Removing the problematic capacitors, then resetting the PMU and SMC, fixed it. | | 1 |
