Subject: ERROR 81 -HELP!


Hi everybody,

  I'm still having problems starting my Macintosh XL (ROM H/88).

  I've tried flipping the flywheel after turning on the power and it 
turned out to be a solution, but not for long. I turned off the 
computer for a while and it needed the flywheel to be flipped again 
to go when turning the power on. Is possible a more permanent 
solution to it?

  Afterwards there was a "clack" sound from the solenoid and a strange 
sound of spinning (something like a windy day in a desert with an 
occasional cricket sound). After a short wait (not immediately) it 
said ERROR 81, that it's supposed to be a problem with the brake 
solenoid (according to the lisa repair do-it-yourself from Sun 
Remarketing), but, How can it be possible if I can hear the brake 
solenoid releasing?. Then, there wasn´t HD option on start-up menu, 
just floppy (pressing apple-2).

  I'm really puzzled about that. How can I fix it?
  Thank you anyway,

  german:)


  PS: The following are previous messages as context to the problem.

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
