I have got a visitor: a dead CBM 4040 disk drive. The symptoms: all LEDs stuck on. No disk activity. This means the 6502 does not boot correctly.
First checks: voltages are correct, reset is working, clock is present.
Next up, OneROM with Piers Finlayson‘s IEEE diag ROM. However that also doesn’t want to boot.

I'm working on a 3D printed Commodore 1541-II case, time for the lid. Eventually found that printing this model upright got me the best result. The print's fine except a fracture on the right side, it was there even when the thing was on the printer bed. I guess the nicely modelled vents cause a structural issue right there. I'm not too worried, I'll get some clear UV resin and reinforce it from the inside. When the lid is in place, there'll be zero stress on that part. #commodore #commodore1541 #3dprinting #floppydrive
