Hello,

I have acquired a Hitachi VIP2000 CED player. Previous owner stated that when plugged in, nothing would happen (no appearance of the unit being powered on).

I have opened up the unit and found that both the carriage belt and the stylus belt have turned to black tar. I have removed and cleaned the spindles on both.

I now need to know where I can find new belts for this CED player. I will assume that some of the various VHS belt kits may also be compatible.

Also, does the unit not actually power itself on until a CED videodisc is inserted or should I see something on the unit light up to show that it is plugged in? Just trying to do some additional troubleshooting beyond having to replace the belts.

Thanks!

for belts.

The Hitachi style players turn on when a CED caddy is inserted. Other than that, there is no outward sign that the AC is alive.
