Wangtek 5125ES End-of-Tape Sensor

[Seth Morabito]

Hello all,

This is probably a long-shot, but does anyone have any advice for testing the End-of-Tape sensor on a QIC drive?

I've recently restored a Wangtek 5125ES (well, "restored" is a bit strong, I just replaced the capstan roller) and after about 5 tape passes, it completely lost its End-of-Tape sensor. I'm not entirely sure whether or not it's producing IR, pr of the sensors are dirty, or what.
