Hey everyone!
I Bought a Macintosh Classic 2 off of Ebay for 10 $ (Plus 22 Shipping
) . It comes with a keyboard and a Mouse. The Description says that it starts up to a Flat line on the CRT and that the Vertical Sweep circuit is blown out. According to this site: http://www.biwa.ne.jp/~shamada/fullmac/repairEng.html
They Say
"(1) The first thing to do is to check the P1 connector. If the problem is caused by connection/soldering failure of the P1 connector, you will see the burnt and/or charred P1 connector. Desolder, clean and resolder the P1 connector.
(2) If the problem still persists and the culprit is the U2 IC chip, replace it with a new TDA1170N chip.
When the U2 IC chip is broken, you may see another symptoms such as:
(1) The screen is shrunken to the upper/lower half of the monitor and the opposite half blacks out,
(2) The upper/lower half of the screen is extended in the vertical direction."
Does anyone know of this Problem on a Classic 2? The site above was made to repair the Macintosh SE and not any other...
Thanks!
