|

I have a working RCA SFT 100 W CED player. The only problem is it takes to many times to count to get the disk to load in the player. I have to keep taking the disc in and out before it accepts it. When the disc actually loads the player plays fine. What can be done to fix this so that the disc only needs to be put in once in order to load |

When I was a kid my brothers and I would slap the top of the machine in the back until we heard a clunk. It worked but it was probably a little rough on the unit. This is the fix offered in the repair solutions of www.cedmagic.com:
"The most common cause is the failure of the caddy lock defeat rod to pivot and engage the caddy spine. This rod was lightly waxed at the factory to prevent corrosion, and the wax may have hardened over time thus preventing pivoting. Remove the rod (extending from left to right across the back of the player) and clean the rod contact points and the rod wells with isopropyl alcohol to remove the wax. Next check the defeat tabs and the latch follower tabs for burrs. Remove any burrs with a sharp knife to provide smooth surface contact with the latch assembly. Use synthetic grease (NOT petroleum-based grease) to sparingly lubricate the wells, the rod pivot points, and the latch assembly at the point of the follower tab contact." _________________ Eight percent of geeks own MD recorders. |

What do you mean by "load in the player?"
Does the player not take the spine and disc out of the caddy, or does it actually load the disc, but the screen stays black and doesn't begin playback? - REinhart |
