Hi

I like to use 2 1541 Disk Drives when i play my Multi-Load games. One just died. I have extra Working 1541 Motherboard I would like to Trade for a Working 1541 Drive Mechanism.
So i need a 1541 drive with everything Except the Motherboard.
Im sure someone has fried motherboard or needs some chips and have extra 1541 Drive Mechanism.

Let me know
 
hi..im in USA

There is no power so the PSU died. I put good board into that drive and it didnt work. I put board from the non-working drive into a working drive and it worked. It wont turn on (No red or Green light). I dont want to mess around with fixing PSU part (bridge rectifier,big capacitors,high voltage=dangerous)

The board ill send im guaranteeing all the chips to be good.
 
Well, given that the rectifier and caps are on the mainboard of a 1541, that kind of limits the problem area. Stupid question, but you did check the fuse right?
 
the Transformer maybe is bad... fuses are good. Like i said that Drive Mechanism wont work with even good board. I have a good drive to test with so that helps.
