GLOD 2400 --HELP!!

[Parkblue at gmx.net]

Been there too... 

Check Sydney Ho's excellent article on GLOD (I thought I had kept it, but
any search engine will unearth it). A long disconnect of everything -
battery and ac power - can help, but follow the instructions for a l-o-n-g
reset afterwwards. 
Sometimes PRAM batteries go boink, but you must open the 2400 to replace it.
(If you have too I think I have one spare that I bought I replaced mine in
Dec.)
And finally - if your board is bad DT&T can help, for a fraction of what
Apple would love to charge you.

Good luck!

The 2400 a friend sent me after he botched a hard drive replacement needs
help.

I really would like to get it running. It has no broken pieces (except the
ribbon cable to the track pad) I did that one after a slip. It looks like it
was rarely used.

I am sure it probably needs a PRAM battery, looked original. Can that cause
GLOD?

I have been testing it with a keyboard plugged into. I got the GLOD issue
before and after the broken ribbon cable.

What is the first few things to do. I remember something about a fuse to
check.

Assuming I can overcome glod how many hundreds of dollars are track pads?
