them.

Replace IC401 or IC400 on MAIN board.
9-1-2. How to troubleshoot (Countermeasure)
1) Check the SPDO signal from pin16 of IC401.

2) Check the SP- & SP+ from IC400 to CN401 for driving SPINDLE motor. It is about 3.6 Vp-p.
 If no signal, check +1.8 V and DVCC+5 V for IC400.
3) Check if the FFC cable is solidly connected between CN401 and MD.
