Most old G4s PowerPCs have Problems with the Elkos of their Powersupply.
\nIf you're a bit into Soldering, you can quite easily exchange these and get it working again.
\nSadly, it didn't work out for me, maybe something different wrong...<\/p>\n

BUT - for the sake of helping you out, I made a Picture with the Specs of the Elkos that normally \"fail\".
\nRed are the ones which actually were really dead as I measured the old ones (i.e. the 25V 100microF had only 68microF left),
\nGreen were the ones that \"still worked\" \/ were in quite good condition.<\/p>\n

But thats only from one Powersupply, on yours it might look different.<\/p>\n

But anyway, good luck!<\/p>\n
