[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1624404, member: 56379"] GREAT to hear…and thanks for the update. It's great to hear & learn about this sort of thing!:) In the "Mac World"…it's not very often that the parts from one Mac are swappable into another Mac. Especially when there's a 2 year difference between the computers. Not 100% sure what to say about the temp sensor cable. But on older Mac's…some of these temp sensors are just a surface mount sort of thing (a surface mounted sensor that is held on with a piece of tape). So if you can trace the original 4 pin sensor from the 2007 iMac's original display…and if it is just held on with tape. Then just remove it…and use it on the 2009 iMac display you installed. - Nick [/QUOTE]
