Greetings-
Recently, I acquired a IIcx which I unfortunately discovered
doesn't work. When I go to power the computer on, the fan will spin for
as long as I hold in the power button, and then stop spinning. A slight
click issues from the speaker (and repeats if I'm holding down the power
key or button), but nothing else happens. I've already tried a different
power supply with no luck. Does anybody know a cure for this, or should I
just look for a different IIcx?
On a related note, while I was pulling the sucker apart to see if
there were any obviously bad capacitors or anything, I noticed a jumper
block labeled "W3" near the power-supply connector. (You can see it at
http://maze-base.ummu.umich.edu/Stuff/IIcxW3.jpg
just above the power-supply connector.) I can't seem to find reference to
what it does anywhere, and I don't see a similar block on other II-series
Macs. Does anybody have any idea what it does?
Thanks in advance for any help.
-Seth
