Service notes

[edit | edit source]

The 5400 series is serviced at module level from Apple's Service Source; the module part numbers, the original and Rev. B chassis, and the known faults are on Macintosh Performa 5400. The machine contains a CRT; read CRT Discharge Procedure before opening it. The clock battery is a 4.5 V alkaline pack that Apple replaces below 3.0 V, and alkaline leakage is neutralised with dilute white vinegar; see Battery Explosion, Capacitor or Corrosion Damage.
