  • Possibly. I ask because I do not know you so please do not take any insult in my querry.
    How skilled are you in soldering, and the assembly and disassembly of electronic components?

    It is possible that the connections between drive and control board might have just been loose, or the Floppy disk chip may have failed. One of these fixes is pretty simple and the other involved.

    Additionally if this is starting to feel like more than you want to tackle yourself, I am happy to help you locate a local service center. They might be able to do the repair or they can send it in to us to fix.
