Hi.

My old normally-so-trusty iMac 21.5" EMC2308 recently stopped working.
When i press the power button, nothing happens.

I have gotten my hand on a tech repair manual that mentions some diagnostic leds on the logic board, and states that you should be able to see them through the vents located in the bottom of the iMac.

Ofcourse i understand that i cant see these leds if the PSU is broken, but i´m not sure i´m looking the right place and whether they are easy to spot.

Can i remove the LCD and try to find them with a power plug active ?

Any other good ideas for diagnosting it ? I have ofcourse tried with another cable, and all the resets i could think of.

Thanks in advance ;)
