Probably other heads are bad. You might need to replace them.

You are using the unlocked PCB?

no i am using the original PCB

it is highly probable that you will screw up the whole thing without proper tools and access to the SA (not possible with orig pcb, at least not without unlock server). It can erase T2 or corrupt the SA with donor heads, then bye-bye data.
So i don't recommend continuing like this, especially it is a client's drive.
