    iMAC 27" with PSU PA-2311-02A - not giving voltages

    Hello.
    Have this 27" iMac, that suddently after 2/3 yearsin storage wont start. when i connect power i was hearing some electric sparks sound from back of PSU. i wigle whole mac and it start with chore. so i remove PSU to check, but there is only AC input and output to board and see no bad connections. i resoldered big chips but nothing changed.
    when i measure it outside i found that only 1.3V on SDA/SCL pins. no PS_ON voltage or other voltages

    what can i measure to have better understanding where is problem?

    anybody know what voltages should be active when connected to power?

    i think that SCL/SDA should have 3.3V and PS_ON should have 3.3V and PP12V_G3H_ACDC should be 12V

    Powersupply has all the voltages - Monitor still no power
    by Capacitorial
    Hello guys,

    I have a Philips 240B7QPJEB. The monitor seems completely dead.
    I opened it and measured the voltages of the powersupply. I found that a mosfet was dead and replaced it.
    On the connector, that goes to the TCON board, all voltages 15-19V and 5V are present.
    The small connector on the left of the PSU has two cables with 18V and all the other have 0.2V. It connects on this small connector on the left ontop of the panel. I guess the backlight? Seens fine I guess.
    The weird thing is, that the Power LED is powered over the TCON board.
    On The TCON...

    iMac A1224 PSU, 614-0421 - no standby voltages
    by Crystaleyes
    Hi chaps.

    Having recently picking up two dead 2008 iMacs, one is now working, however there is still one to repair.

    I was told that they both had failed power supplies, and seeing how I intend to crack SMPS repairs, it was a challenge not to ignored.

    Anyway, this PSU in question had already had someone having a pop at soldering.

    The current problem is (at the very least) in the primary side.

    Fuse is ok
    MOV is ok
    NTC is ok
    Bridge rectifier is ok (~380vDC)
    Fat filter cap is ok
    ...

    iMac A1418 - No LED, no power after overvoltage on Ethernet port
    by ryogadan78
    Hi guys, I need your help again.
    I have this iMac from a customer that shut down during a storm along with all the other devices in the house. In particular, the router, connected via Ethernet to the iMac, caught fire.
    When I removed the screen from the iMac to check the status of the LEDs, I noticed that none of them were lit. I had a perfectly compatible and working power supply, so I tried it right away, but the problem remained the same (no LEDs). With the thermal camera, I noticed only a slight warming (32 degrees) of the NCP1605BG chip on the power supply. The rest was completely...

    iMac M1 DFU restore issue
    by Stephen
    iMac turns on no drops no cracks, tried to DFU Restore the iMac, logo turns on great! however iMac turns itself off and then restarts to the (!) icon and won't post the restore. Tried thunderbolt 3 cable, tried regular USB C cable and nothing.

    this is the message it gives me with the error

    Unexpected device state 'DFU' expected 'RestoreOS' (Probably forced into DFU mode externally) [com.apple.MobileDevice.MobileRestore – 0xFAE (4014)].


    Any thoughts what this could be? I will open it up and repair it but I am not 100% sure since this iMac doesn't...

    iMac 27” 2020 Boot issue
    by Stephen
    Customer came in for data recovery, came to find out data is soldered on to this iMac (learn something new everyday) this is a 2020 T2 iMac so I was surprised because the iMac Pro has a T2 chip and it isn’t soldered on. Anyways, the iMac boots to Apple logo and then restarts, before it turns off you hear a quarter fan spin then it repeats itself. I decided to do a DFU revive to restore any hardware firmware issues and it was successful in reviving the device however the issue persists in boot looping. It shows the Apple logo for like 40 seconds then turns off and fan spin rinse repeat. I...
