Spare parts for a HL2700N

[Remittub]

Hi,
My printer developed an E9 error and I have traced it to the OPC belt sensor. Does anybody know where I can get a replacement item ?
I'm pretty certain that it's the LED that has failed rather han the photo transistor. I could replace that if I had more info on the part. Has anybody been here before me ? Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Sorry, I thought this was a Brother printer forum - the HL2700N is a Brother printer

take out the opc belt

Hi, I've done all that - didn't fix it !

An update ! I removed the sensor from the printer and tested it on the bench ! It works perfectly.
I have no reassembled the machine and the EE9 error no longer occurs.
The only conclusion that I can come to is that the cable connector was not fully inserted.
Anyway, I took advantage of having the machine apart to give the internal a good clean
