How To: iMac G5 Power Supply Replacement

[TheGLuci]

you really should use a ESD-Matt (Electro Static Discharge) it's much better for every electronic part as without

[nextacy123]

great video :)

does iFixit ship globally? and do you carry power supplies for the g5 24" iMac?

[liamsmadre]

@mikelardiii So glad we could help! And congrats on the successful repair! --mj

Super easy! I called the Apple Store to get a replacement and after 3 phone calls, they still wouldn't sell me one without a) their "genius" taking it apart to diagnose the issue, or b) an activated Apple Care program for my machine. What BS!!

Good thing for indie dealers. If you are in So Cal, near Northern Orange., Riverside, or East L.A. Counties, look up LA Computer Co. in Anaheim. They had my part in stock and I went over to pick up and install same day. -Mike

I got my G5 in '06 and have gone through 5 power supplies in 5 years, it goes to show how easy these power supplies over heat.

[gemmyfreak2871]

I lost the screws for the power supply, where can I find some new ones?
