How long does the Apple iMac MOB repair and capacitors installation procedure take?
Replacing the capacitors on the mother board depends on your experience level on working with electronics. I would suggest planning on three to five hours of time for the MOB repair procedure to completely remove all the major internal components, including the power supply, hard drive, super drive, memory, and of course the motherboard. and then to replace capacitors, and finally reassemble the internal components. The amount of time required for the PSU repairs are typically shorter. Take your time to do it right; do not rush the project.
