[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Video out to lunch on Mac

lester@infonode.ingr.com (Lester Bartel) (04/02/91)

The video went out on my Macintosh (The original 128K machine upgraded
to 1Meg memory and 128K ROMS).  I get a dim picture with part of it
folded over on itself.  The transistor Q3 heats up big time (it melted
the solder!).  I replaced it, but the symptoms are still the same.  I
can measure 5, 12, and -12 volts at the proper pins on the connector
to the main PCB.  I suspect the high voltage transformer, but before
I spend the bucks for it, I would like to confirm this.  Please e-mail
to me, as our news feed is not very reliable.
