I assume that you're using the same cable for both Amigas :),
if your machine was repaired in the latter days of Wang you may have got a
dodgy motherboard, the one that got fitted in my A1200 has been bodged
with a soldering iron and as a result the parallel port won't work. If
there's nothing obviously wrong with the board then you might be better
off trying to pick up a 2nd hand A1200 to replace it. My advice is not to
try replacing SMT if it's anything more complicated than a resistor if you
don't have specialist tools for the job, even then.....
