FDS problem + looking for a disk drive replacement

[Dendy]

Hi guy's.

A while ago I got new unused FDS system and had to replace the belt cause it was melted... After belt replacement I couldn't get it to work, tryied two different belts, followed alignment guides but with always the same result. Which is, when I put the game in fds is says "Loading..." and nothing happens. I waited like for 10 minutes and still had the same screen, no error at all... Drive is spinning al right and head goes back and forth, but that's it... The same thing happends when you silde the disk bay down, as if the disk been inserted, and power up the fds.
Has anyone any experience with such a problem?

I don't really want to spend any more time trying to figure out what to do unless someone knows exactly what to do. If not then I'll need a drive replacement or just a fds unit without hookups, doesn't have to be pretty but with good working disk drive. If someone has it for sale, please let me know!

Thanks!

Check if switch flipping, when head unit moving "back".
