iMac 24 keeps shutting down
Hi, have had this problem for a while now, the imac just shuts off like the power was cut. Just wanted to know how to find the problem as I would prefer to fix it myself if possible. Have looked in the console but no power issues.
Thanks for your help

All the lights on etc. When I unlatch lcd light goes off. Can't understand why it just shuts down. Don't wanna buy a psu if it something else plus don't wanna pay for unnecessary repairs if I can do it myself

Still going off. All the led lights are on when supposed to be. Can stay on for a long time then go into sleep mode but when I start an app it goes off. Help with this would be greatly appreciated. Is there somewhere in the log where I would find out the problem?

It's a last shutdown cause the code number. I haven't a clue what to try now. Took the logic board out yesterday. No dust on Gan or in the vents of the logic board

Me again. Just did the full extended hardware test. No problem. Reinstalling el capitan at the moment. If my HD is dead would it still shut down while running off external drive. How do I check if fan behind. Logic board is running since I have to take it out to see. I think I might just have to give up and put some money away to buy another Mac
