I've got a clicking WD1200AB. How can I tell if it needs a head stack replacement? Are there test points I can pop a scope on?

Continuous clicking, or click for a bit then spin down?

Click, Click, Click, Click, Click, Click, then a short pause, then more clicks, then it stops. Honestly didn't notice if it spins down.
