PB AC adapter/charger color code?
When plugged into AC and PB G4 17" adapter works and charges
Color ring at plug end can be either green or, orange-white
However it turns RED (instead of orange-white) if the cord at the plug is moved very slightly.
(I say it's orange-white meaning the color is somewhere in that visual range to my eyes– neither white nor orange but a mix)
What does the color RED indicate?
Just bought a reconditioned PB and it's in warranty period. Other than this and fast battery depletion, it seems to work fine.
Rechargable Battery is model A1057 original apple 10.8v 62 wh.
Model info: from Hardware Overview PowerBook 5.5
from back of PB case Model A1085
The red color likely mean somthings not making connect, but hope someone can verify that.
