Re: HP 97 Card not fully ejected Message #9 Posted by Ed Sowell on 4 Oct 2010, 2:49 p.m., in response to message #8 by aj04062
No, but from what you have shown I can't tell if you have to tug it out. By tug I mean to pull hard, with easily felt resistance. I believe the resistance I feel is due to the trailing edge of the card being still in the grips of the traction and pinch wheels.
Actaually, the problem was called to my attention when I posted a video of me doing the same thing, but pulling the card out after the read. Here it is again:
Video of my reader from last April.
I had posted it to get comments on the noise level I had at the time. Ignazio responded as follows:

Hello Ed, I've saw your short movie. It's my opinion that your reader is too much noisy, and that you must pull the card when it's out of the reader. You have used o-rings too much wide! BTW, have you checked the test-point on the card-reader PCA with a continuity tester? There are three test-point marked M (motor switch), F (Write protect swith) and H (head switch) on the upper left side of the PCA, that you must check with the ground signal (to the left of the three test-point) to test the switches are working properly. Let me know.
Now that I've repaired the clutch and switched to the fuel tubing traction wheel repair the noise probelm is gone, but the incomplete ejection is still with me.
Thanks for you interest. It helps to get feedback!
Ed
