Some series of G4 and G5 have had issues. On G5, the good thing is that usually any hardware problem occurred in the first year of the computer. (save for the lucky ones like me… it happened 3 years after… damn CPU)

For me the UPS did the trick, if the issue is main driven. If it does not, it's software or inside the mac itself.

For the battery, check it in place with a multimeter, it should read at least 3,5V. If it reads less, change it.

Have you done a motherboard reset?
