Lc475 floppy issues

[imactheknife]

I picked up a lc475. Cleaned and recapped it. Board was decent and worked fine before recapping. I did not check floppy function before recap. Once i turned and first successful boot, i tried to mount a floppy, nothing, it tried to for a second them quiet. I tried another lc floppy, same thing, sounded like it tried then nothing. Tried other cables, same. Now it sometimes gives me this pop up saying cant initialize because disk is locked. Any ideas?

ok, so with everything pulled except vram, I get the x icon, no flashing question mark, so it obviously thinks a bad floppy or wrong floppy is there but nothing is attached to logic board.

Probably still an issue in the LB area (goo ?) floppy drives are pretty reliable.

So, rewashed board, cleaned, scrubbed, let dry. Still issue with floppy. What chip controls floppy on a 475?

Probably the SWIM

So i pulled off a few caps in area of floppy, memory and vram. Cleaned and recapped again. Floppy works fine now Go figure! Anyways, always check for shorting and or bad solder on recap if something is wonky.. not always a broken trace or bad via, or chip etc
