Sorry if this gets double posted. I posted a few days ago and have not
seen anything show up yet.

I have a Nikon LS-2000 that is broken. I have the results of my
preliminary troubleshooting here (with pictures):

I'm wondering if any one has any history fixing or at least
disassembling these.

Thanks,

Dan

Well I seem to have fixed my scanner. The square nut that was loose
should have been in a slot in the bottom of the scanner assembly. I
had to unbolt the motor to get it back in. I still can't figure out
how this could have came loose even while shipping!

I ran a test scan with VueScan and wow! What a great scanner /
software. The preview was full of dirt and lint etc. The final scan
was pristine even with my half-assed attempt at cleaning the filthy CCD
mirror with Q-tips. There is a how-to
(http://www.vad1.com/photo/dirty-scanner/ls2000-cleaning/) on
disassembling one of these but I felt I was pushing my luck already.
