Plan C | Acorn A3000 Repair Part 2, Case, Keyboard Connector & Membrane Fixes + Sound Mod @Plan-C | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 minute ago.
Follow on to previous video where I repaired a battery damaged A3000. In this video I fix all the broken case catches, do the Zarchos sound mod, repair the keyboard membrane, make new keyboard connectors, clean the floppy drive, scope the power supply and test it (it is fine!)

2*13 way to cut down (what I did):

I would go with the 20-way but they arrived late and I am impatient!
