Problem for Ricoh Aficio AP3800C Laser Printer

I have serious color shifting occuring even after

I have serious color shifting occuring even after manuel color registration. Lots of clicking noises that I can't isolate. I have a new transfer unit on the way. Is there any way to run the main motor in service mode, with PCU's & developers removed so that I can isolate the clicking noises? I want to make sure I don't have any stripped gears.

No,the printer will not run without PCU's installed.The only way unfortunately on this model is to check all gears visually.Most likely bad gears either in one of the PCU's or in the fusing unit.
