Re: ERROR 82 (ADJUST SOLENOID)

Hi German,

Does the hard disk spin up?

If not, then the solenoid repair won't help. Try flipping the flywheel (right after you turn on the power) with the eraser end of a pencil to see if it will go.

After spinning up, is there a "clack" sound (from the solenoid), followed by some "squeaking"?

If not, then you need to check/adjust the solenoid again.

If so, then the drive is working, check the cables are connected. Unplug and re-plug the data connector and I/O board to wipe the contacts. If that doesn't help, you may want to try to re-initialize it and reinstall the software (note that this destroys all data already on the hard disk!).

Good luck!

James
