Hi,
I'm rebuilding my beloved IIfx at the moment, and have hit a snag with the machine turning off unless I hold the keyboard power switch down. Take finger off the keyboard power, it'll turn off. If I hold it down for long enough (eg. a minute or two), it will eventually "take" and be quite stable with no issues, but not every time. If I attempt to power up by the IIfx rear power switch, it will turn on and off very quickly - think on/off/on/off several times a second.
Both PRAM batteries are fresh and replaced, and it only has two NUBUS cards - a network card and Radius Videovision graphics card, 8MB/1GB HD, dual floppy drives, Astec power supply. I've also cleaned the IIfx power switch with contact cleaner spray.
Any tips? Thanks in advance.
