If you need any more help with the electronics of the drive itself, I
have the service manual. It's got some board-swapping flowcharts in the
first part (that's what I produced that 'procedure' from), but the second
bit is the schematics. So I can probably figure it out.
But if the problem is inside the HDA (maybe a damaged clock head or
track, this AFAIK is a fixed head that always reads the same track off
one of the platters) or if the problem is in the cotnroller, which I know
nothing about (what is the machine, BTW?) then I probably won't be much use.

OK, here are the actual procesdures from the
manual : [snip]
Many thanks--I've got your notes safely stashed away. Hopefully it's
not the custom controller in the same box...
