  1. iMac G5 17" Model A1058 Logic Board Replacement, Rear Panel: stap 1, afbeelding 1 van 1

    • Lay the iMac display-side down on a flat surface.

    • Loosen the three Phillips screws securing the rear panel to the iMac.

    • These screws are captive in the iMac. The center screw will stop turning after about 3.5 turns and the outer screws will stop turning after about 5.5 turns. Do not try to remove these screws from your iMac.

    • Lift the optical drive near the connector to separate it from the logic board.

    • Lift the free end of the optical drive just enough to clear the fan cover. Lifting the free end of the optical drive too far may break the plastic positioning pins off the front bezel.

    • Lift the free end of the optical drive slightly, then pull it away from the edge of the rear case to clear the two plastic positioning pins.

    • Lift the optical drive out of your iMac.

    • When reinstalling your optical drive it may be necessary to set the bezel attached to the open end of the drive on the plastic positioning pins molded into the front bezel of the iMac and pull the connector side of the drive toward the edge of the rear case, bending it outward slightly, to properly seat the connector.

    • Rotate the center Phillips screw on the bottom of the iMac clockwise until the rear panel clamp contacts the edge of the case.

    • On our specific machine, the threaded portion of the clamp broke off the clamp body causing the center screw to turn without moving the bracket. If your machine is broken like ours, skip to the next step.

    • While depressing the connector lock, insert the flat end of a heavy duty spudger into the gap between the power supply connector and its socket.

    • Twist the heavy duty spudger to slightly separate the connector from its socket.

    • It will be necessary to work from alternate sides until the connector is free.

    • Your power supply may have an ambient light sensor cable attached from the power supply to the logic board. If so, carefully use a spudger to push out the cable towards you using the sides of the cable alternatively to help you slide it out.

    • There are several capacitors mounted to the logic board in close proximity to the power supply. Try not to disturb them, as they are delicate and may break off the board.

    • Grab the power supply from each side and rotate its top edge toward yourself until it clears the logic board.

    • Lift the power supply out of the midplane.

    • The power supply requires a large amount of force to remove. You may need to slightly bend the edge of the front case toward yourself for enough clearance to remove the power supply.

    • Grab the logic board from both edges and lift it out of the midplane, minding any cables that may get caught.

    • When reinstalling your logic board, be sure to clean and apply a new layer of thermal paste to the U3 chip (highlighted in red) located on the underside of your logic board as well as its copper heat sink attached to the midplane.

    • We have a thermal paste guide that makes applying thermal paste a snap.
