[QUOTE="cowasaki, post: 788757, member: 36098"] Oh yes, your question was about which solder pads. It is about a year since I last did this as out other iBook (same spec) has not been taken apart that far. From memory I would have guessed the two parallel thin pads at the front but looking at the picture it looks like the pins have been pulled away from the rear fatter pads! I would hook everything together get a thin piece of wire and touch the two pads with either end. If they are the correct two pads it will start up if not then it will not start. You should be able to tell by holding the connector against the pads. [/QUOTE]
