Anyone want to sell a 1541?

Well, looks like the 1541c AND the 64c I just bought are dead. The 64c...who knows...
Anyone have a 1541 that is known working, that they'd be willing to sell?

Maybe even a 1541-II? :D (Though I'm not really picky, if I got an older 1541, I'd probably just put the guts into the 1541c shell....now if only I could get my breadbox mainboard into the 64c case...that seems to be a problem...

At the very least, could anyone tell me what the value/rating is on the C15 capacitor inside the 1541? Mine is totally burnt to a crisp...

I have some to spare 1541, but unfortunately for you I live in the Netherlands - the shipping cost will be a bitch.
And it's a 220 Volt drive.
The value of the C15 capacitor is 10uF/16V .

I'll try and replace the capacitor, to see if that helps.
Thank you!

I replaced the capacitor and it works a charm now :)
