So that's very similar to the status of my repair board. Last thing I was doing was trying to replace little caps that hopefully regulate ADB - hence my request for the photos.

Yeah I've already "worked" on these enough time. In that stack there are ,
- a 200Mhz working fine but no ADB, so i don't care much about it cause i already have two fully work…

Progress : Just tried that SCSI trick, now the corroded 240Mhz board boots on a Zip. But unfortunately no ADB nor trackpad control, nothing.
So I get on the desktop and can do no…

The connectors won't fit. So no. There are probably also a slew of other incompatibilities.
But also if both VGA and a working 3400c screen don't work (I'm not sure actually abo…

You could try reassembling the all thing , and leave it unpowered but plugged to power brick for a night.
My Kanga was not booting one time, I think it was after changing the HD, …

I don't want to suggest you do anything that will harm the Kanga - particularly because I think it'll be difficult to find a new logic board - but at this point I would take the bo…

No I didn't take it out as I don't have anything to swap.
I cleaned a battery leaking PB 5300 logic board some weeks ago - which is working now, but I can't see anything wrong wit…

Wait. The 3400c display does not work with the Kanga? I thought that it did. If it doesn't then there are some more basic problems. I assume you have taken the logic board out …

Yes I have absolutely everything to test. I‘m a Mac user since 1992 and didn't give away anything.
And yes, I have all service sources for all Macs, but the Kanga / 3400 servic…

Nor worries on the English.

Interesting. Random thought. I think with the second problem I know what you mean - sometimes my broken board (when it worked) would boot to gray screen and sometimes to HD (past…

I don' t think ADB is completely broken on these. The first one , non-corroded nice looking, was from a 3400c with a broken screen that i managed to boot with another screen before…

Galgot - thank you very much! I have to start working on my /200 board again; getting the solder off has proven pretty challenging. I'm assuming none of those boards specifically…

Booting on a Mac takes time. I noticed that on my systems with a SSD, that there is a 20 second or so pause between the "Welcome to Mac" sign and the first extension loading. And s…

Yes I did it:
I swapped the PMU board, but that didn't help. Wasted money!
I tested with a known good PowerBook harddisk with system (and a CF-IDE adapter afterwards), disc…

Hi,
I got the Kanga as non working: black screen, no start chime, but HD spinning a while (using known good power adapter).
And: when I put in a PC formated empty disk, it's ejec…
