Title: A600 wiring repair question
Post by: BGary335 on December 27, 2008, 11:33:39 PM

I have an A600 that is in need of a few repairs, one of which is that the wires that power the hard drive, floppy, and power LED's on the case need to be soldered back onto the circuit board inside of the top half of the case. Problem is, I don't know whether each color wire on the connector has to be attached to a certain place on the circuit board. So my question is, is there a particular way it needs to be done, and if so, what is it? I've searched the net for info on this, but have come up pretty much empty handed.

Thanks in advance for your help!

First, I appreciate your help. Let there be no confusion about that.

That said, I apologize if my request was too much. I'm sure someone else here would have been able to  provide the needed help sooner or later. I'm a little shocked to be seeing the rolleyes smilie over such a minor request. I hope I'm just taking it the wrong way.

 Yes, you interpreted it the wrong way. :-)

 Your request wasn't too much. I just opened my A600, unscrewed the LED array, take a pair of pictures, edited 'em, push 'em to my Picasa account and replied the thread.

 Nothing at all, really.

 And I noticed there is not even a single shot of the little board on the whole 'net!

 Not mocking at you, really.

put those pictures into the AO gallery and change the link in your post and then AO will be THE source for A600 repairs.  8-)

 @Mike- :

 The photo was taken from a complete board, on the second you can (barely) see the green and yellow LEDs.
