Where Are the Power Pads on Mac mini Model A1283?
I'm working with a Mac mini Model A1283 Motherboard and need to locate the Power Pads to turn the system on without the original power button. I’m using an Apple Mac A1188 Adapter, and the board is standalone (not in its original case).
I've looked at reference guides but haven't found an exact diagram for this model. If anyone has experience with this board, I'd appreciate details on:
- The exact location of the Power Pads
- The best way to short them to turn the system on
- Any precautions I should take to avoid damage
If you have images, schematics, or detailed descriptions, they would be extremely helpful. Thanks!

There are no true power pads (laptops) all there is the power button header which is a two pin connector located in the corner, just shorting it out will do the trick!
