There is a (blue) wire soldered between the aluminium 'can' (looks like an oscillator - located by the power plug on the board) and the small square chip next to it.

The capacitors seem to be pretty messed up - there's no startup chime / sound at all (whereas my other SE/30 is feint but not completely gone), and there's a bit of gunk on the board where they've leaked. The thing works pretty well though - no simasi on start, although I haven't tried with any extra memory or a bigger disk.

Apart from that, it's in pretty good condition. The CRT is a clinton model, the case is all okay, although it has had a second monitor board in there at some point as the original PDS blanking plate has gone and a radius equivalent is there.
