[QUOTE="ron4mac, post: 1606069, member: 63497"] From the looks of it, the data cable does not plug into the mother board but perhaps would connect to a utility board. In step #11 of the page that pigoo3 provided in a link, the data cable coming from the bluetooth module clearly goes out around the left hand side of the battery compartment. And here, in step #22, you can see the the end of the cable comes up just around the top left corner of the battery compartment: [url]https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/PowerBook+G4+Aluminum+15-Inch+1-1.5+GHz+PC+Card+Cage+Replacement/234[/url] So my guess is that it connects under the left speaker area or pc-card cage. Are these components all from the same, original machine? Or is the display a replacement one that happened to come with bluetooth. Last possibility ... you've already plugged another cable into the spot where the bluetooth data cable goes:Blushing: [/QUOTE]
