Hi all. Sorry to revive an old thread, but I am looking for a CDM9/65 or a CDM9/44 for my Rotel RCD-970BX. I may have found one in another thread, but I thought I would put out as many feelers as possible. Thanks!

I was looking for the cdm9 tray gear and the cdm4 (marantz) tray gear and i found i company in the netherlands wich was making them again.
They have start up a new production of the cdm9 gear and cdm4 gear.
the company is called www.audioservice.nl

In case anyone is till looking for these tray gear wheels:

As I happen to live nearby, I just picked up a CDM9 gear wheel today from www.audioservice.nl and it works like a charm. It was a bit expensive at 29,75 euro including BTW (BTW = Dutch sales tax). Hence, you might get one cheaper on E-bay, but these are not the originals. It is a replacement product made from a different and hopefully less brittle material. Shape is exactly the same, but the color is lighter than my broken original. You'll have to phone them or send an e-mail as the parts list on their website has been "under construction" since...

Replacement instructions?

Hi everybody,

My Philips CD930 and my Philips CD940 both show similar problems - when pressing the "open" button, there is a stuttering movement of the tray, which does not open fully. Only after pushing "open" for a number of times, with the tray going back and forth, I can finally insert a CD.

I assume that the gear wheel is the culprit. As far as I have seen, I seem to need the CDM9 gear wheel discussed in this thread. I have opened the CD930 player and spotted the gear wheel, but I am not sure what is the best way to get it out and replace it. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find any instructions on the web. Could anybody point me to instructions (pictures would help a lot)? Or could any of the forum members who have replaced the gear wheel of their CD player provide me with a description of how they did it? I would highly appreciate any help.

Thanks a lot,

Michael

Hi Jim Hu,

Thanks a lot for posting the link to Eddie Wang's page. It seems that the relevant steps for me are 1 to 5, the removal of the CDM-9 transport. Is there any important information contained in the Chinese description?

Cheers,
Michael

Hi Michael,

The geared wheel was spindle-mounted on a base plate in both my Arcam players I repaired, and were identical to the one shown in Eddie's photo. IIRC, the wheel will "click" off the spindle and the new one "click" on. I used some non-agressive silicone grease on the replacement wheel. It was a screwdriver job, with no other tools required......

Good luck!

Jon

Hi Michael,

The Chinese description is basically to tell you everythings should be very careful. Don't use brutle force to disassemble and if you cannot fully disassemble, it might have some screws unloosen.

Please disassemble it and you will understand it is not a tough job. However, you should prepare the right type of screw driver.

Good Luck

Hi Jim Hu and Jon,

Thanks a lot for your answers. I have now followed Eddie Wang's instructions up to step 4. On the one hand, I have seen that the gear wheel is indeed worn; on the other hand, I am now quite confident that I will be able to do the replacement job. I will order two gear wheels and carry on when I received them.

As for the grease, can any silicone grease be used (some of the ebay sellers offering silicon grease are actually divers' supply shops), or should I watch out for anything specific? (Please excuse these dumb questions.)

Got CDM-4 gear wheel, need CDM-9

I know this is a long shot but I have ordered by mistake and received a replacement gear wheel for the CDM-4 transport. I was told that the Aura CD player I was repairing had a CDM-4 transport and stupidly I didn't confirm it before ordering.

What I actually need is a CDM-9 gear wheel, I'll try Audio Service as posted above but if anyone needs a CDM-4 wheel I've got one for sale/swap!

Re: Got CDM-4 gear wheel, need CDM-9

To ceharden (post 73 in this thread) - I'd be interested in buying your 'spare' CDM4 gear wheel if you've still got it handy. I can't private-message you as I've only just joined the board, but if you can pm me with your contact details then I'll email you back. Alternatively, please email directly at the email address shown here: http://tinyurl.com/on6owr
