Twin Famicom FDS repair

Post by Satoshi_Matrix »

I have a problem with my Twin Famicom's FDS portion. None of the disks I own will work with it, even brand new ones I bought off ebay guaranteed to work. I don't want to leave the seller bad feedback if this is the fault of my system.

Every game I have gives error 22, 27 or somewhere in between. I took my system apart last night and am sure its not the belt. The belt looks perfectly fine.

What can I do to get my FDS games to work again?

Maybe clean the disk drive head? Unfortunately a proprietary disk cleaning disc is out, alcohol and cotton swab.

This page has the error codes:
