Looking for a working PCB for

WD1600JB - 00READ
10 SEP 2006
DCM: HBCHCT2AHN

PCB: 2061 - 701292 - C00 AE

Hope this is enough information to find an apropriate PCB.
Have a drive here which spins on, clicks 3,4 times, spins off and on again
clicks again 2,3 times, spins off again - after 3rd time it remains off.
It is not recognised in BIOS.

Thank you for any sugestion.

I mistiped the last digit of the code: It is a WD1600JB - 00REA0


Can anyone confirm that a pcb change could solve the problem or
has an (additional) advice?

thanks in advance
Walter

Generally speaking, the clicking you describe is more likely to indicate a head problem.
