iBook will not recognise battery charger or charge battery
Texto:
Have exhausted my fixit knowledge on this one! Help please if possible
Recently acquired G4 iBook 14in A1055 M9388LL/A 933MHz operates perfectly on battery but will not recognise battery charger or charge battery
Actions so far
1. All usual resets (PMU, PRAM, VRAM etc)
2. Apple Extended Hardware Test: passed
3. Disk Utility from external disk: no HD errors detected
4. Substitution of known working battery, charger & DC-In board: no effect
5. Erase HD & clean install of OS X 10.5 (just in case!): no change
6. Also installed coconutBattery to confirm battery status (thank you, coconut-flavour)
Presumably some kind of hardware fault. Are there any other fixable elements to the charging circuit apart from the DC-In board. Connector and socket on logic board both seem in good order
