I acquired an iMac G5 20", no camera (A1076), it doesn't power up. On plugging in the power cord one diagnostic LED comes on. Resetting the SMC doesn't help. PRAM battery is good. According to Apple test procedure it's a bad logic board. One set of caps was blown out, I replaced them (after much trials and tribulations). All the others looked okay.

Does anyone know a likely culprit, fix, test? According to the original owner it was taking more and more attempts (button presses) to start up before it wouldn't start at all.
