3 x Commodore Amiga 4000 Motherboards / CPU Cards Restoration
I have fixed 3 x Commodore Amiga 4000 Motherboards and 2 x Commodore Amiga CPU Cards for a dear friend. Below the description and photo of each repair.
Commodore Amiga 4000 Motherboard #1:
- I have done an accurate cleaning of the leaked battery acid even in the holes between pcb layers.
- Replaced some SMD electrolytic capacitors with a high ESR value.
Commodore Amiga 4000 Motherboard #2:
- I have done an accurate cleaning of the leaked battery acid even in the holes between pcb layers.
- Replaced all SMD electrolytic capacitors with a high ESR value.
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.
Commodore A3640:
- Replaced all SMD electrolytic capacitors with a high ESR value and a first acid leak.
Fixed the problem of the 3 capacitors installed with the wrong polarity. The silkscreen on the pcb are wrong. Thanks Commodore.
Commodore A4CPU EC030:
- Replaced all SMD electrolytic capacitors with a high ESR value.
