If you have not been authorized to perform these procedures, please contact Apple (800-APL-CARE in the USA) or your local authorized service provider to schedule a repair. DANGER! This procedure exposes you to high voltages that can result in death or serious injury. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS PROCEDURE IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN CERTIFIED AS AN APPLE-AUTHORIZED TECHNICIAN. Products affected Board Identification The 661-2347 board (Figure 1) has a switch at location SW901 that must be set for the type of CRT tube in the computer. The switch settings are silk-screened on the board near SW901. If this power/analog/video board or the CRT are replaced, make sure to set the switch to the appropriate position (either to LG or CPT).
