6579.0. "tkz61 r/w head plate" by GIDDAY::PUDIPEDDI () Mon Apr 14 1997 20:48
TKZ61 R/W head plate replacement and part number change:
The part number for R/W head plate assy has changed from 29-32296-01 to
29-33463-01.
The new part package 29-33463-01 contains the following:
	  1. 29-33464-01  R/W head plate assy    VPN 606575-001
	  2. 29-33465-01  Compatable R/W module  VPN 967608-004
	  3. 29-33466-01  2 cables a.read cable  VPN 606577-001
				   b.write cable VPN 967486-101
   
The old r/w head has 2 pins cut out on the read head,and the new r/w head
has all pins available. From this it looks like there is a change in the design
of the read head and hence a new read/write module and read cable. The write
cable is same for both types of head plate assy.
                    
Here is a matrix :
       R/W hd plate   R/W module     READ Cable       Write cable
                                     
1.     967483-001     967608-003     967485-101       967486-101
2.     606575-001     967608-004     606577-001       967486-101
		      or later
		
The write cable is same for both types of heads.
