Given the recent bump, I figured this thread was as good as any to respond to.
I just picked up an Early 2008 24" iMac 3.06 C2D. smcFanControl tells me that the ODD fan is running at full speed all of the time. I did an SMC reset and a PRAM reset to no avail.
I ran the Apple Hardware Test and got this code:
Some Googling tells me this is sensor-related. I believe my iMac uses this sensor and iFixit has a replacement guide for the same vintage 20" iMacs here. Is this process applicable to my 24" as well?
Does it seem like replacing this sensor should cure my issues? I see several temperature readouts in iStat but nothing seems out of line or failed, and there isn't a sensor listed for the optical drive. Am I missing something?
Thanks!
