Commodore 64 - How to clean/repair the heads on 1541 and 1571. I had a request to show how I clean the heads on my 1541 and 1571 when I am converting floppies over to .d64 and .g64 files on my Ultimate II+ and Zoomfloppy and getting read errors. This is for all the people who never opened up their 1541 before and would like some direction on exactly what they should do to clean the head. This "How To" is straight forward and easy to follow. There is also a bonus tip at the end to help you make sure the 1541/1571 is looking at the right track location every time. #commodore #c64
