Jumper Location J28
Jumper location J28 controls which power supply the Power
Macintosh G3 logic board can accommodate. When you receive a
Power Macintosh G3 logic board from Service, you need to place
the jumper in the proper location. The power supply used in the
Power Macintosh G3 Desktop computer is different from the
power supply used in the G3 Minitower computer.
If the logic board is installed in the PM G3 Minitower, the power
supply jumper must cover the pins marked “PS”. If the logic
board is installed in the PM G3 Desktop model, this jumper must
cover the pins marked “Mac”. (Replacement logic boards should
come preset for the Desktop model.) When replacing the logic
board, be sure to check the power supply jumper setting. If this
jumper is missing or set incorrectly for the computer model, the
computer will not boot up
