A straight "shorting" device like a screwdriver is not recommended and the electronics don't like that.But no big deal if the old Mac is partially dead, but that voltage can make the tech into the same state if one isn't careful. Those capacitors can hold a huge big jolt for a long time after being unplugged!!!   <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
