Was that a new laser mechanism? If so did you de-solder the antistatic solder bridge before fitting it? There is a soldered link on the optical units PCB that has to be de-soldered before fitting or the laser will not work. It is bridged to stop static electricity blowing the laser during transit.

Use some extra flux on the SMD chips bitte. Also use de-solder wick to clean the old solder off first. You'll get less solder bridges.

Why not glue an extra aluminium heatsink on top of the original heatsink with thermal tape or thermal glue if this is a common problem? You seem to have a lot of Azures with with blown TA2092N chips. Love you videos, they make me laugh, love your accent. Greetings from the UK, where Cambridge Audio gear is actually made.

Hallo, You do not have to take the entire drive out of the case at all. If you pull the tray forwards there are 2 plastic clips with circles under the tray, GENTLY pull them out to the side a little bit, these lock the tray when fully out. You can then gently pull the tray forwards a little (but not fully out). You can then get more access to the belt to change it, very simple. I had the exact same problems with my Azure 340C even the small switch actuator came off as yours did (the part you glued) or "gutentighted" lol I left that part out and the CD player still worked fine for a while, now it stutters and won't read many discs so I shall glutentight mine in too. GREAT VIDEO BY THE WAY, YOUR ACCENT IS GREAT

Hey FALTO el DIPLAY abuelito esta muy OSCURO......!🤔🤔

Hello ! I need to replace the laser head with Harman Cardon HD-950. I can't take my head off ! The pull-out tray is in the way.

Buena reparación, estos reproductores son muy buenos vale la pena repararlos tienen el audio clarito sin distorsion y potente, sí escuchamos una memoria USB se escucha HORRIBLE son una PORQUERIA las memorias.

I have the same machine that refused to start after a power outage. I was about to leave it for recycling when I saw this video. I just hit the reset button and it works again. Thank you!

Good work my friend 👍

Hi The no sound problem you have is a problem in the power supply pcb.

Hi the problem you have with this machine is normally caused by a problem in the power supply. Hope this helps

Another nice new CDM4 transport wasted It's almost never the laser fyi

Fantastic video

Schwachsinnsvideo!

My original machine deck B exactly same problem, i can't fix it. Lazer ok, but not playing

VU meters for recording levels on deck B

I've got 2 of these machines, identical to yours. Got stuck drawers on deck A. Otherwise play perfectly after 20 years.

Tradu text folosind camera foto greetings from Romania. i have watched your videos hundreds of times....my yamaha 810 won't turn on. I changed the 22uf capacitor but nothing. I don't have a k3850 and I can't find a close equivalent. I made contact between the relay pins on the 230 volt side and the surprise starts after I press the start button. I removed the relay, measured it and the coil is broken. I listened to music like this for hours at a moderate volume and it still works. My question for you is: after measuring the relay power point why do I have 10.4 volts only for 2 seconds when I press the start button then 0 volts? I specify that it still works very well, only that it must be removed from the power socket. I am waiting for an answer. Greetings

The problem with this compact unit is very strange. It sounds to me like the audio and reading capacitors are failing. It is a very typical problem for Technics and Pioneer. I am a technician and I know what I am talking about, especially if you have already changed the optic, the optic is not the audio capacitor. and reading in Technics and Pioneer, the capacitors that usually cause problems are the 1uf 50v 22uf 6.3v and 47uf 6.3v in 99 percent of the Technics and Pioneer that they brought me from other technicians who directly blame the optician with the recap of those 3 Capacitors came back to life and to this day they work without any problems. I would recap that compacter and you know how it comes back to life. That's probably the problem.

Hi I just got an old Sony cdp 797 cd player but my problem is the volume is very low through the 2 sony speakers .I don't have the remote control .Any help would be appreciated .thanks

Hello! Denon DCM-500AE does not turn on after three years of rest. The display does not light up. What are the most likely causes?

how to pair remote

Tip for silver. This symptom is when procesor have problems with communication with BD board under mechanism.

Original battery is rechargeable! And it's charge when unit is in AC.

Espero me pueda ayudar un saludo desde Arequipa Perú gracias

Is the GigaBlue Trio software stable? Is it easy to update the software?

I wish i have the skills nice man

Hello, when I bought this device, it had exactly the same problem. After watching your training clip, I first replaced the belt and the 1000 microfarad 35V capacitor. The problem was solved by about 95%, and it only gave errors sometimes, but after replacing the 6800 microfarad capacitor, I replaced it, the device no longer works and only gives error messages, what is the reason?

My first CD player ❤

Hello Mr Weakbit, so sad that WE have not New vidéos from you... Hope you are well. Give us some news please

Have you (mr weakbit) got a beef with everything british we wouldn't want to start another war now would we now.

One of the reasons laser pickup is skipping tracks at the end of CD is that the ribbon (especially OEM ribbon) comes in close proximity/contact with the transformer. The EM field from the transformer interrupts the work of the laser via the ribbon, so the laser skips/stops. You can verify this by placing some protective plastic between the transformer and the ribbon: it skips less.

great install))

I found this Cambridge CD player in the trash bin. I would like check inside as the CD drawer won't open. Could you please let know the type of screw driver for the screws on the top cover. Thank you.

I. Can't decide if you a playing for laughs, or you really are just pratting.

Why not just fit the entire working drive into. The working unit?

I have fault with Crx550 ot powering up.I left it on with pasused.music from USB.Protection is active as relqy cklick and nothing on diaplay is shown.

Cec has made belt transport for different brands. I have an Yba cd delta 3 with a Cec mechanical. It's high end Hifi. Weight is to avoid vibrations. Not the kind of construction you'll find on 500€ cd player. Thanks for your video.

perfect video, I subscribe. I have the same yamaha and the same error. dead. apparently it will be the same transformer... some weakness of these yamaha... how did you solve it? do you need to get a new transformer? or how is it going in the video, it works even without a transformer. thank you

Hi! Your repair is great and clean work. I also have a TEAC A-H500 with an issue, so would you help let me know your idea? The left channel on my A-H500 is always outputing at maximal level, however the right channel is good. This affects all input signals, and I have to eliminate the left channel with the balance knob. Some pro guy told me that this might be something wrong with the volume motor. Is is such and could it be replaced with similar spare part? Thanks.

I sink I can sank you too 😉

Hi, I have not the Din cord... Can I use alone the CD player ? Thanks a lot

Interesting, but you are kinda scary with the innards. 😯 😄

Check the motor that positions the laser head to ensure it moves freely. If it's seized it cannot put the laser head unit in first position so the drive motor won't turn on and spin. Usually you'd need to remove the laser head position motor (long silver one on the head gear) apply a few drops of oil and provide it some power for several minutes to free it and see that it moves freely over time.

Great job sir 👍

👍👍👍

Thanks for filming this, a local repairer told me I needed to try and source an entire DVD loading deck, now obsolete, but your video enabled me to pull everything apart, clean it all and put it back together. All working fine now! 👍👍

Warum nicht in Deutsch?

Pls my Sony hcd md-373 volume break and cant work again, pls can it be constructed or even send me diagram on how to bypass it
