Re: loose solder on AC/Sound board

[Paul Nicholson]

I resoldered the Power connection on my WallStreet. It was easy to do. 
You have to take the case apart. It was a couple of years ago and I've 
forgotten where the screws are. Do a Google serach, you'll likely find 
instructions for getting the case apart.

Have you soldered before? I would not advise if for the mechanically 
inept, but if you have reasonable skills you should be able to handle 
it.

I have the same problem on my Pismo.  So how difficult is it to get to 
the AC/Sound board and resolder the connection?  Tips, cautions, 
warnings?  Can I get to the board thru the keyboard or would I have to 
crack open the Pismo case?  Is that hard to do?
Tricky?  Easy?  Thanks.


I love my PowerBook, but recently I've been having problems with the
headphone jack. The male end of the cord doesn't seem to make a full,
snug connection. If I press on it, sometimes I'll get full sound.
Otherwise it goes in and out.
Any ideas? Suggestions? Preferably cheap or free, since I'm not 
working
right now.
Probably a loose solder on the AC/Sound board. It will probably get 
worse
until you fix it.
