Troubleshooting Introduction - 1 Introduction This chapter contains basic theory of operations information as well as detailed Symptom/Cure tables, both of which should help you troubleshoot and repair the iMac, iMac DV and iMac DV Special Edition systems.
Troubleshooting Block Diagram - 2 Block Diagram The following illustration provides an overview of the iMac inter- nal components and shows how they are connected.
Troubleshooting Power Flow/ - 3 Power Flow Power is controlled in the iMac system by the power/analog board. Once the unit is plugged in, power flows from the AC outlet at the wall to the AC inlet on the power/analog board.
Troubleshooting Testing for Power - 4 Testing for Power The iMac requires trickle voltage (+5 TRKL) in order to power- on. If you are experiencing power problems in the iMac unit, you will want to test for trickle power to pinpoint the location of the problem and to determine whether or not the power supply/analog board is functioning normally.
Troubleshooting Testing for Power - 5 At the Logic Board With the iMac placed with the CRT face down on a soft surface, remove the bottom housing and the EMI cover to access the logic board. Testing J9 for +5 V Trickle Power on the Logic Board You will need a volt meter to test for power on the logic board.
Troubleshooting Testing for Power - 6 Testing DCO (Down Converter On) Voltage at C10 on the Logic Board In a No Power situation, first check for +5 V trickle power at J9 (refer to “Testing J9 for +5 V Trickle Power on the Logic Board”), then check the DCO (Down Converter On) voltage on the logic board at capacitor C10 (see figure below).
Troubleshooting Testing for Power - 7 Testing J7 for Voltage on the Logic Board The following voltages measure if the down converter is providing the required voltages and are only present if the system is pow- ered on. If the following voltages are not correct, refer to the “No Power” troubleshooting symptom chart.
Troubleshooting Testing for Power - 8 Testing the Power/Analog Board Fuse First remove the bottom housing, front outer bezel, and the top rear housing to access the power/analog board. The fuse is located near the AC plug. Warning: You must unplug the iMac to do a continuity test at the power supply board fuse.
Troubleshooting The PMU Chip - 9 The PMU Chip The PMU (Power Management Unit) is a microcontroller chip that controls all power functions for the computer. The PMU is a computer within a computer. It has memory, software, firmware, I/O, two crystals, and a CPU.
Troubleshooting Resetting the PMU on the Logic Board - 1 0 Resetting the PMU on the Logic Board Resetting the PMU (Power Management Unit) on the logic board can resolve many system problems. Whenever you have a unit that fails to power up, you should follow this procedure before replacing any modules.
Troubleshooting Power-On Self Test - 1 1 Power-On Self Test There is a power-on self test that resides in the ROM of the iMac. This test automatically runs whenever the iMac is powered on after being fully shut down (the power-on self test does not run if the machine is only restarted).
073-0593 Re v . A iMac Verifying a Defective Power/Analog/Video Board Many of the po wer/analog/video boards returned to Apple as “bad” or “DOA” hav e no trouble f ound at the repair facility . It is impor tant to verify a def ective pow er/analog/video board properly before ordering a replacement.
Verifying a Defective Power/Analog/Video Board - 2 2. Make sure the video board is properly seated on the CR T neck (see Figure 2). The top picture shows the video board improperly seated; the bottom picture shows it properly seated.
Verifying a Defective Power/Analog/Video Board - 3 3. Check the connection of the RGB cab le to the logic board. (see Figure 3). Figure 3 RGB Cable Connection 4.
Troubleshooting Power Button - 1 2 Power Button The power button on the front of the iMac (see Table 1 below) will power up the computer, or put it to sleep, but it will not shut the iMac down. Note: When the iMac is in Sleep mode, the amber LED pulses on and off.
Troubleshooting Logic Board Battery - 1 3 Logic Board Battery Important: Apple highly recommends removing the battery when handling the logic board. Make sure to use proper ESD protection when handling modules. The battery on the logic board controls the stored system settings, such as date and time.
Troubleshooting Ejecting a CD or DVD Disc, Part 1 - 1 4 Ejecting a CD or DVD Disc, Part 1 The CD/DVD eject mechanism is electrical rather than mechanical on the iMac. If you wish to eject a bootable CD-ROM disc at startup, simply hold down the mouse button until it ejects.
Troubleshooting Ejecting a CD or DVD Disc, Part 2 - 1 5 Ejecting a CD or DVD Disc, Part 2 There are two internal levers on a slot-loading CD-DVD drive that help center a CD-DVD disc. Some CDs and DVDs have and uneven edge which can cause enough friction to prevent the disc from ejecting.
Troubleshooting HFS Plus Formatted Drives - 1 6 HFS Plus Formatted Drives The hard drive in the iMac is formatted with HFS Plus (also referred to as Mac OS Extended format). It is important to note that Norton Utilities version 3.5 is not compatible with HFS Plus (or Mac OS Extended format), and in fact, can destroy data on the hard drive.
Troubleshooting Testing the Modem - 1 7 Testing the Modem The iMac ships with AppleWorks software, which can be used to test the iMac modem connection. You should run this test if the modem is not able to dial out. To perform this test: 1. Locate and launch AppleWorks.
Troubleshooting Testing the Modem - 1 8 A good test to see if the phone line is working is to type “ATDT”, which will open the phone line. If the modem reports NO DIAL- TONE, there isn't a valid analog line connected.
Troubleshooting Symptom/Cure Tables:Startup Problems Before the Finder Symptom/Cure Tables:Startup Problems Before the Finder Appears If you have trouble starting up the iMac, and the problem occurs before the Finder appears on the screen, you may have either a software or a hardware problem.
