  • cd reader dead ?

    From Daniel Olivares@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 1 04:14:09 2023
    the screen of the CD player have a bright light but not function. I changed all the push buttons, nothing and nothing! the radio portion works very well. Do you have a solution?

    Details would help (what kind of player is it?).
    Is there a disk in the drive? Can you eject the disk and try another?
    A scratch or dirt can make a disk unreadable, and some players will keep
    trying anyhow.
    And, some kinds of mechanical jam won't eject the disk, so either disassembly or
    use of a mechanical eject (not motorized, you just put a stiff wire into the right hole to
    release the disk) will be required.

    I'd have to repair first the Xtall ball, and they are mightily expensive.

    On some of these readers, depending upon the compression type or file type used,
    some cd players won't read that cd. Example if not an .mp3 reader, will not read
    an mp3 disk. So, make sure the material is compatible with the reader. Everything
    else as generalized in the other responses apply as well.

    Good Luck.
