Title
Repairing CanoScan LIDE 90 Casing Spine
Introduction
If your scanner gets jammed half way through then it could be that the casing is bent
There is a metal 'spine' that runs the length of the base inside the casing. This pushes the scanner head up and into the glass causing the motor to 'lockup' and creating a horrible noise.
If you open up the scanner and bend it flat again it solves the problem.
You can tell if it needs this by turning the scanner upside-down and placing a straight object (metal ruler?) along the length of the scanner back. If you can see bowing (dipping or a curve down) towards the centre of the back casing, the rail inside is probably bent.
