    I don't feel quite as stupid now. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    I did the same thing with my Dads morris mini. The big black ignition button mounted center on the dash yells "PUSH ME" to 5 year old.
    The old man removed it down to the drivers side floor after that.

    I actually had a Morris Minor in high school; wish I didn't have to give it up when enlisting in the USAF (1966).

    I sense sarcasm. :P
    I know I should be ashamed of myself. Strangely though, I am not.

    Stripped machine down in good time (50 minutes), taking out the last screw and it dropped into the drive unit
    An extra hour and a half spent trying to retrieve screw without having to remove drive unit and giving up, and having to remove drive unit anyway.
    Rebuilt machine, now it says PCUs (all of them) not set correctly. Ran out of time, going back tomorrow to strip it down again to find what's wrong, probably one connector not plugged in.

    I don't want to play anymore

    I always hate that one connector that hides from me after a major tear-down. :/ Have a cookie. That will fix it. cookie bite.jpg

    I hate dropping screws. For me in is usually into or at least near a power supply or other board. Have to locate it before reapplying power or risk losing a board, my boss does not to have to replace boards.
