LC520 Alive Again - 2007/02/18 19:50Well in a last ditch effort I took the motherboard out, stuck it in the dishwasher ran it thru the wash cycle, took it out blew it off with an aircompressor, then cleaned the remaining gunk off with board cleaner. Put everything back together and vala it started and I now have a working LC520 again.

Re:LC520 Alive Again - 2007/02/18 19:53So I guess I have leaking caps and not a bad analog board. I will have to replace them, these are surface mount tantalum caps, going to be a little difficult but managable.
