Sounds like failed motor chip, you have to replace SMOOTH chip (L6283 1.3) and your drive (MAY) spin up fine. ( I hope so )
OR
you can change the entire PCB and transfer the original ROM.

Good luck

If it's not the PCB it will need internal work which isn't a DIY job. Has it been dropped at all?

The advice here is to get assistance from a professional who has a very good chance of retrieving your data.

though I suspect you are going to avoid this advice and attempt your own repair in which case you will have yourself a new doorstop.

you have recieved good advice. If its bad advice you want then maybe you should head back over to youtube - the elephants graveyard of DIY attempts....
