IIx Battery Question

2012-03-05 by Roland

Hi all,

wasn't it advised many times in the past to remove the battery on the 
CPU card in IIx CMIs to prevent damage on the card in case the 
battery start to leak ? That's what I remembered.

Today I finally removed it, on the CPU card in the slot that reads 
-133- . Was there anything else to do except removing the battery ? 
Now that I put the card back into the machine, connected the two 
connectors (while the top connector remains empty), the machine 
refuses to start at all. All I get is a sometimes green, sometimes 
black screen.

Any ideas ? Did I miss something ?

Thanks for your help

Roland
