I had an extra SE 800k that I took a 3430045A off of... they only have one of course since they're not stereo but it's there in case you have an extra SE board by chance.

My take would be to do a cursory cleaning with IPA of each of the logic boards and then put them aside (to be recapped after) and obviously lose the batteries. - Then take care of (clean, recap and reflow) the Analog Boards and Yoke board., Clean, lube (and replace the eject gear in) the Floppy...

Hey good luck! Amazing score!

Thanks so much for your expertise Kai. Will go through those next. I really appreciate the help!

Thanks. Will check oscillator and clock...Do you think I can make any conclusion about the GLU and CPU other than they are somewhat working? Or does the death chime imply that those are fully ok?

One thing I really don't understand is since I can consistently get a distorted death chime (with the NMI), does that mean the GLU, CPU, Clock and ROM are ok? or could they still be partially damaged and still need to be replaced? Obviously, something is failing in the self test but can I...

totally appreciated. I'm gonna do some tests and let you know if I wanna buy them if you're selling.

good news, so if I do need to replace the SE/30 GLUE, I could take it off IIx or IIcx board just as well.

I'm gonna go with the Zoyi ZT703S. Seems like significantly better quality and features for just a bit more money. Still very affordable. https://a.co/d/gr7B8iA

I want to see if the chips on my SE/30 reloaded board are functioning properly. I don't want to invest a lot at the moment. Just enough to know what might need to be replaced. Would something like this be adequate...

right. so my understanding is the proprietary chips are the GLU, SWIM and ASC. The only way to get these is to take them off of old boards. Are the ones on a IIcx or similar Mac II's compatible with an SE/30? I would assume the GLU is not?

By SND do you mean the Sony chips or the ASC itself? Are these for sale anywhere? Thanks.

Very welcome. Yes, had to make it for my own sanity. Checking so many pins.

Here's a quick reference for the PLCC chip pins on the SE/30 Logic Board.

Just thought this might be useful to the group. Saved me some time.
