Hi all,
Last night my DP60 suddenly started acting up: I seemed to notice that the speed of closing the tray was higher than usual after removing the CD. Now the machine refuses to open the tray altogether : I essentially now have a dead player. My first thought was a broken belt, but upon opening the player everything looks fine and clean as new. It seems like a few gentle taps with the handle of a screwdriver on the motor in the back will open the CD tray, but it could be a coincidence. I'm talking about the motor that lifts and lowers the disc pressure arm.
Could the motor be the culprit? Or is there an electronic problem (hence the high closing speed of the tray)? Or a slipping belt perhaps?
There is no longer an importer in Belgium, so if I can't pinpoint the problem and repair it easily myself i may have to drive all the way up to Holland or Germany.
Any ideas what could be wrong please? Thanks!
