My initial d card readers are all misbehaving. I have consulted the sega repair manual but i must admit this repair is beyond me. the issue im having is a constant clicking coming from the drive. If i try to boot up the machine with both card readers enabled the machine gives me a r/w error. I have cleaned them multiple times to no avail.
anyone here with repair experience on these things?
i have 4 card readers and three don't function!
 
Card reader errors

Try the website irepairsega.com
He is a good guy and will tell you what to check.
If it still doesnt work he can repair it from you.
He is a technician that used to work for Sega.
Hope this helps
 
Yea, I contacted him as well because I just purchased a Card Reader that was suppose to be working but isn't. He's really helpful and will show you what to check so you might can fix it before you have to send it. The downside is he charges $78 a hour which after 2 hours would be the cost of just buying another Card Reader. The upside would be at least you know the one he sends back will work were if you buy one off Ebay it might say working but don't (I hate getting scammed).

Just a heads up, I sent mine in to Ken and he fixed it and shipped it out in two days. Cost $166.54 shipped which is about the price of a card reader but eh, it was fixed and he was very fast at doing it. Highly recommend him, he knows he's Sega stuff.
