I hate to say this, but that is not fixing the power supply but replacing the power supply with a new unit. i was hoping to fix it as mine blew and was hoping to revive it, but not luck on this end by the look of it. :(
Thanks for the clear instructions to replace the power supply. I got my part on eBay for $29 (other online stores are charging $100-200+ for it) to doctor up an old G4, and it works like a charm now.
Is it normal that after installing a replacement power supply for the PowerMac Quicksilver 733MHZ one of the fans is still running? Not sure which one, but once everything is shut down completely, I just pull the plug to avoid that fan from running for ever. Any feedback is appreciated. That unit still runs under OSX 10.4.11 and Classic.
