Hi all. I just purchased a C2D 20" iMac that had a busted LCD. When it arrived, everything worked fine, but the screen was unusable. So I powered it off, unplugged it and left it in my closet for nearly two weeks.
Last night, I removed the broken LCD and installed a new one, and while I was in there, I cleaned the fan and changed the HDD to an SSD. I wanted to test it before putting it back together completely, and sure enough, it does not power on. It now shows absolutely no sign of receiving power. I located the LEDs on the logic board and they don't even illuminate. One thing I should note is that I did *not* check it for power again before disassembly as I assumed it was still working fine. So I am not sure if it "died" before or after replacing the LCD.
Any tips/suggestions?
