When you plug the power adapter into the iBook's power port, does the plug light up?

Glad you got it fixed, my 14" ibook had a bad d/c in board. They are pretty easy to disassemble though. Just a tip for the future. I am not trying to criticize you, but a little grammar would make your post much more readable, and might elicit a few more responses. That was one HUGE run-on sentence and made it a little hard to read your post.
