I recently purchased a CED Player (100) and its having torouble. When I insert a disc, it does nothing. Just -- on the display, and nothing happens. I looked a the needle, and it looks ok, but Im not sure how to tell if a needel is bad. I opened the cover and the needle is placed on the disc as it should, but nothing on the screen. I tryed manully pushing the arm in the middle of the disc, but still a blank screen. Please anyone with helpful info PLZ help me!!!! Thanks |

Have you literally removed the cartridge? Have you tried cleaning the tip of the stylus? Sounds like either the stylus needs to be cleaned or replaced. Is your model the SFT-100/SGT-100 or SJT-100?
The stylus cannot find a groove on your discs. From experience, I've found out that the stylus, from "years" of use, likes to collect dust as a hobby. This dust can get to the point that you can literally call it a hairball. You will have to remove the stylus cartridge from the pick-up arm assembly for further inspection. You can gently clean the tip with a q-tip dipped in alchohol. If after cleaning the tip it still won't play, then I suggest a replacement cartridge.
Hope that this helps!
Keep those CEDs Playing! |
