The '''Macintosh Performa 430''' is a [[Macintosh Performa]] rebadge of the '''Macintosh LC II''' &mdash; the two are the same hardware, sold under different names and bundles.<ref name="perf">[https://lowendmac.com/2015/apples-performa-line-1992-to-1997/ "Apple's Performa Line, 1992 to 1997"], Low End Mac; [https://512pixels.net/2024/08/performa-month-the-first-updates/ "Performa Month"], 512 Pixels; and the corresponding model articles on Wikipedia. Source for the Performa-to-model equivalences.</ref> Because the logic board, analog board and power supply are identical, the '''[[Macintosh LC II Troubleshooting]]''' page applies in full: use it for power, video, capacitor, storage and audio diagnosis.

The Performa 430 is an LC II variant. Use the LC II page for diagnosis.

== Common faults (shared with the Macintosh LC II) ==

As with the Macintosh LC II, the first steps on any un-serviced unit are to '''replace the electrolytic capacitors''' and inspect for '''PRAM-battery leakage''' and its corrosion, then confirm the power-supply rails. Full detail, test points and fixes are on '''[[Macintosh LC II Troubleshooting]]'''.
