Hello. im working on a WD wd5000lmvw and when im trying to upload dir into ram i got error on modul 2

Pictures attatch.

Any advice for moving on..

I presume you are trying to upload it from the drive?
If so, you need to find a donor, the original loader will not work.

It is from the "load from file" from the hard drive when the hard drive was alive. I took a backup of SA. When I worked on it yesterday it works when I upload module 2 from file. But when i make imag of the hard drive it died, so today I cleaned my head. It starts up, but as mentioned, will not upload module 2.

Did you try a matching loader from a donor? ie not the original.

Yes with same result.

Did you load the directory?

Upload DIR and LDR without 02, restart in normal and check SA - maybe module 02 is damaged

So the heads failed while imaging the drive?
So you just cleaned them and put them back in?
Have you tried donor heads?

I will see if i have any more donor drive for swap head and see what happen.
