iMac LED Diagnostic- logic board just replaced

iMac was dead- old logic board had no diagnostic LEDs. Apple store said needed new logic board a year ago (said they tried a new PS and no go).

Just put in a new logic board. LED#1 lights up, but power button does nothing. No sounds, no fans, no HDD. I did add a SSD as a secondary device.

There is another LED on right side that comes on/off when power button pressed (below DVD player).

Could it be the power supply? Anything else?

this is an iMac Intel 21.5” EMC 2428

Thanks. I’ll try that. I’m also wondering if I burned something up. When I first powered on the new board, I got a distinct plastic- burning smell and unplugged it. I hadn’t put the LCD or RAM back on yet. Haven’t smelled it again in the 10 times I’ve plugged it back in to test though.

Well, I took everything apart again, looked at both sides of the logic board with a magnifying glass. Didn't see any 'burned' areas but I don't really know what to look for.

If it something that you did smell you most likely would see it as well :-) Could have been just the board firing up for the first time ;-)

Well, it wasn’t the power supply!

Took everything apart and on one of the connecter I had bent a pin. Straightened it out, put everything back together and it started fine.

@turtleiron

since you’ve already replaced the logic board and now only get LED 1 it is absolutely conceivable that this is a PS issue. Get one from a place that has a good return policy and try it out.
