Try to insulate the contacts to the head stack and see if it spins.
Anything on terminal ?
This will exclude a shorted pre-amp.
Does the pcb have a ROM chip ? Do you have external eeprom programmer ?



thanks Spildit for your quick help

Dear Friend HHDDREC Dont Worry About This Drive Just Find The Matching Donor And Direct PCB Swap Is Possible In 7200.10 If Problem In ROM Or PCB Your Case Is Solved This Way.If Any Of Same PCB You Have Then Try First The Eprom Swap And Check It If Drive Not Responding In Terminal That Mean Your Rom Is Gone Find The Matching Donor And Swap PCB Directly.
