Hi all,
I've fixed a couple of 1541 today. Well, actually one can't be fixed
because the R/W head measured 15.4 kohms instead of the usual 32 ohms.
So it seems it isn't the little cable interrupted too.
I guess the only option is finding a new Mitsumi/Newtronics D500
mechanic and substitute it. Or does anyone know a better solution? Any
idea why a R/W head dies?
I've found someone put an LS00 in place of a 06 on that one, but other
than that, the electronics looked ok.
Thanks
Frank
