Okay I see this
SIM error 1002 = this message alerts us to some error with one or more defect list. Potentially P-list or NRG list can be bad.

the is no entry on NRG
and 2097 entry on plist

and all V1 V2 V4 V10 V100 shows defects without problem.

maybe head issue? because I image data on head 1 very well.

Head 00 Resistance 019D
Head 01 Resistance 0188

Did you try the Congen commands?

[siamak5561]

Yes and none of them make any difference.

Did the congen edits survive a power cycle? If not, then you may need to edit the same parameters in sys file 93h, and then save the file.
