Thanks for the information!
No there are no AA added to the serial number.
I found information on the 5300/190 repair programme on Apple's website.
according to that the programme last 7 years after the manufactoring has
stopped.
As that was in 1996 I still might have the chance to get it for free.
Have to talk to a Apple shop here.
Thanks for the help
Georg

If your 190 has "AA" added as a suffix to its serial number, it has
already
been through the recall for powering and other problems.
One of the fixes added in that recall was to replace the motherboard OR to
replace the power connector so that intermittent connections such as you
describe won't happen.
My 190s/5300s all have this "AA" and none of them have powering problems.
In
fact, they are completely trouble-free.
I believe the 190/5300 recall is long since over.
