Commodore Amiga 4000 Motherboard #3:

  • I have done an accurate cleaning of the leaked battery acid even in the holes between pcb layers. I have also made a “bridge” because a track of the pcb was completely corroded.
  • Replaced all SMD electrolytic capacitors with a high ESR value.

Still a couple of months with the battery acid and this Amiga was to throw in the trash.

Fixed the problem of the 3 capacitors installed with the wrong polarity. The silkscreen on the pcb are wrong. Thanks Commodore.
