|
|
Hello CED community,
I am looking to repair my RCA SGT 200. Recently when I was pulling out a CED, it became stuck. I had tugged on it a bit the disc cracked and the white plastic got caught in the player on the way out. I had to pull it out. Now when I go to play a CED, it will not play. The disc loads fine, it starts spinning but then it won't actually play the disc even as it's spinning still. The display reads "- -". The actual machine machine appears to work fine (display reads fine, spins disc, loads good) so i'm curious what I messed up when this disc became caught.
If you could offer any help and maybe what you think it could be, it would be most appreciated. Also, I live in Boston so if anyone is in Massachusetts feel free to email me if you can fix it. This machine means a lot to me so although the easy answer would be to "buy another one" (which I will probably do regardless), I'm looking to fix this.
I kind of feel bad introducing myself to the community this way but I broke my player testing CEDs for the catalog I was building. I will be posting that in the sticky in hopes of being able to contribute something or trades.
Again, any help would rule. Thanks.  _________________ My want list (help!):

| You might have damaged the stylus. That's the first thing to check, try another known working stylus to see if that's the trouble. |

Thanks for the reply Rex. I just want to post an update that I was able to get in touch with Darrell "CEDPRO". (Info here: http://www.epage.com/js/mi/c1064/b1064/r31118/1766825.html) I'm sure he posts on here but he was great and I now have a contact to someone who can fix my player.
In the meantime, I have continued this growing passion and picked up some more players and CEDs along the way. I have posted my tradelist and wantlist in the "sticky" on this board so check it outtttt!!!
Happy new year fellow collectors!  _________________ My want list (help!):
