AMIGA 1000 ASSEMBLY LEVEL REPAIR
INTRODUCTION
The AMIGA 1000 Assembly Level Repair module is divided into 3sections:
Section 1: Set-up &Test
Section 2: Computer Disassembly
Section 3: Computer Assembly
Section 1is intended to instruct the technician in proper set-up and diagnosis
of problems to the ASSEMBLY LEVEL. Assembly level may be defined as those
portions of the unit that may be easily disassembled and replaced without in-
volvement with chip/component repair.
Section 2is step-by-step illustration of how to remove the various assemblies
from the unit. An overview of the assemblies is given on page 1-1.
Section 3is aguide to re-assembling the computer after arepair is completed.
WARRANTY REPAIR is to be accomplished at the ASSEMBLY LEVEL. That is,
as it is described within these 3sections. Out-of-warranty repair at the compo-
nent (chip) level will be introduced to the AQS center in atimely manner.

1.2 PRELIMINARY NOTES
Required Equipment:
Kickstart Disk
Workbench Disk
Workbench Dealer Demo Disk
Blank Disk or Disk for Testing
Monitor
RAM Expansion Cartridge 1050
Mouse or Keyboard
Known Good Drive
Known Good PCB
Oscilloscope
OPTIONAL: Service Diagnostic Aide
If aSOFTWARE PROBLEM is suspected, verify that the software package operates
CORRECTLY ON A"Known Good" system before beginning test on the
"Suspected Bad" system.
1.2.1 When the system is POWERED-DOWN, it should be left OFF for at least 5seconds before
it is powered up again.
)IF THIS IS NOT DONE, THE AC POWER SWITCH MAY FAIL.
Whenever possible, RESET the system by depressing the "CNTRL" key and both "A" keys,
simultaneously.
1.2.2 It may be necessary to insert a diskette MORE THAN ONCE before it is seated correctly
in the drive. Continued difficulty in correctly seating the disk indicates adefective or incom-
patible disk or adrive mechanical problem.
1.2.3 NEVER remove adisk when the DISK ACCESS LED is ON. Damage to the disk may
result. If the system LOCKS-UP, RESET it by depressing the "CNTRL" key and both "A"
keys, simultaneously.
1.2.4 If aPCB is replaced, ALL case and shield screws must be re-installed.
IF SCREWS ARE MISSING, EXCESSIVE RF NOISE MAY RESULT.
1.2.5 The GROUND STRAP on the drive assembly must be connected when the disk is being
accessed.
IF THE GROUND STRAP IS NOT CONNECTED, READ/WRITE ERRORS MAY OCCUR.
1.2.6 If the system LOCKS-UP when the keyboard is disconnected and connected, it may
indicate adefective keyboard.
1.2.7 System functions that are displayed as GHOST functions are NOT OPERATIONAL at
\this time. An attempt to use those functions may appear to be amalfunction of the system.

1.3 SYSTEM POWER UP
1.3.1 Connect AC power, the keyboard, amouse (if not available, see below) and the monitor
to the AMIGA computer. DO NOT connect any other devices to the computer at this time.
Mouseless Operation of the Amiga
On the AMIGA, anything you can do with the mouse you can also do from the keyboard:
•Pressing, at the same time, an AMIGA key and one of the cursor keys (the keys
with arrows on top that are to the right of and slightly below the RETURN key) moves
the Pointer in the direction of the arrow.
•Pressing, at the same time, an AMIGA key, the SHIFT key, and one of the cursor
keys also moves the Pointer, but faster.
•Pressing, at the same time, the left AMIGA key and the left ALT key (the key just
to the left of the left AMIGA key) is like pressing the Selection button, the left but-
ton on the mouse.
•Pressing, at the same time, the right AMIGA key and the right ALT key (the key
just to the right of the right AMIGA key) is like pressing the Menu button, the right
button on the mouse.
1.3.2 Turn the POWER SWITCH, located on the left side of the system toward the front, to
the ON position.
1.3.3 The RED Power LED, located at the left front corner of the system, should BLINK on
system power-up, then display solid red.
1.3.4 Check that the unit FAN IS RUNNING by placing your hand near the left rear corner
of the computer. Aslight amount of air flow should be felt.
1.3.5 fn approximately 20 seconds, the screen should turn white and, approximately 5seconds
later, ahand should be displayed holding adiskette labeled KICKSTART.
The system is requesting the Boot-Up diskette, called KICKSTART, to be inserted. When
the system reaches this point, it is agood indication that the system data and address lines
are all operating.
•If the above sequence of steps occur CORRECTLY, continue to SYSTEM DRIVE TEST
on page 1-6.
*If the above sequence of steps DO NOT occur, continue to POWER SUPPLY TEST on
page 1-4.

NOTE: WRiTE-PROTECT ALL VOLUME DISKS
BEFORE BEGINNING!
•Slide the write-protect tab up toward the edge
of the disk to expose the small hole in the disk
case.
1.6 SYSTEM DRIVE TEST
1.6.1 Insert the diskette labeled KICKSTART into the interna* drive.
At this time, the screen should turn white as the system loads the disk. The drive activity
light will flash briefly and the drive access sounds should be heard. After approximately 30
seconds and some screen changes, the system should display ahand holding adiskette
labeled WORKBENCH.
•If the hand holding the diskette labeled KICKSTART REAPPEARS, re-seat the diskette and
RETRY. If after 3or 4retries, the system still does not accept the KICKSTART diskette, try
aDIFFERENT COPY of the disk.
•If the disk still WILL NOT LOAD, continue to 1.7 DRIVE ASSEMBLY CHECK.
1.6.2 Remove the KICKSTART disk.
1.6.3 Insert the diskette labeled WORKBENCH into the internal drive.

boot-up message while continuing to load from the disk.
•If the hand holding the diskette labeled WORKBENCH REAPPEARS, re-seat the diskette and
RETRY. If after 3or 4retries, the system still does not accept the WORKBENCH diskette,
try aDIFFERENT copy of the disk.
•If the disk STILL WILL NOT LOAD, continue to 1.7 DRIVE ASSEMBLY CHECK.
When loading is complete, the screen wil! be blue with the WORKBENCH DISK ICON in the
upper right hand corner. The TITLE BAR message will be:
Amiga Workbench Version 1.0 167840 free memory

PLEASE NOTE: The disassembly of the AMIGA 1000 should only be
attempted by aqualified technician using proper static
protection procedures and equipment.
2.1 REAR CONNECTORS
2.1.1 Set power switch to OFF position and remove
power cord.
2.1.2 Remove all peripheral cables and keyboard con-
nector from rear of unit. See Fig, 2-1.
2.1.3 Remove mouse from connector, if present. See

2.3.3 Turn the computer up-side down and remove the
5self-tapping screws from the hollows of the bottom hous-
ing. See Fig. 2-4.
NOTE: It is agood idea to keep all screws
in small containers in the order that
they are removed. Aboard swap
of the AMIGA will require the
removal of 34 screws of several
types and lengths.
2.3.4 Remove the 2flush-mount screws located by the
front bezel. See Fig. 2-4.

2.3.5 Holding the case together, turn the AMIGA right-
side up with the front facing you and the drive to your right.
2.3.6 The TOP HOUSING snaps into the bottom hous-
ing, so remove by applying aslight outward pressure on
the bottom housing, or inward pressure on the top hous-
ing, at the rear corners of the computer. See Fig. 2-5. Set
the top housing aside. Fig. 2-5. Top Housing Removal
NOTE: In the following step, there are 2
.sets of LED wires connected to the
front BEZEL. Care should be taken
not to pull these tight when
removing this panel.
2.3.7 With the top cover already off, the front BEZEL
can be removed by gently working it forward, away from
the rest of the computer. Lay the BEZEL in front of the com-
puter, temporarily, as shown in Fig. 2-6. Fig. 2-6. Front Bezel Removal
