It monitors the door optics and door, cage switches while the machine is off. You can remove it if it a 501, 502, 504 board If it is an enhanced board I have heard leave it alone or else.

Title: Re: whats the other battery do Post by: Tilt on April 14, 2011, 09:39:30 PM That's what I do with my 502/4 boards. They will start leaking and damage traces/components on your MPU board.
