Model: Apple IIe
Symptom: Random crashes

Customer had already rebuilt the power supply. Ran built-in diagnostics and system would randomly crash. Successfully tested RAM with external tester. Tested the CPU, IOU, ROMs, and MMU. Found the MMU had pin 1 replaced and the donor pin was was corroded and making poor contact. Replaced donor pin and tested. Pin 1 was a ground pin for the IC and the poor contact affecting the whole IC's operation.
