Atari 1050 Disk Drive Repair
This drive has two different problems.
- The Floppy Drive just did not turn on.
- The motor spinning always, regardless of whether a Floppy Disk was inserted or not.
Repair:
The Floppy Drive could not work because the FUSE inside the external power supply (transformer) was missing. :-D
The second problem was caused by the RAM-I/O-Timer (RIOT) 6532 which had decided to stop working.
Replaced the RIOT and made a good cleaning and greased some mechanical parts with silicone grease, everything has started again to work better than before. :-D
