Problem with NAD 502 cd player

[c0nfu33io]

Hello,

I found one of these on the street the other day. Decided to pick it up, as I have heard it produces pretty good sound Unfortunatelly disc would spin and play, but the laser would skip a second or two from time to time.
I got a new laser module for it (KSS-210A); replaced the old one and... disc would not spin anymore

any idea what could have happened with it and how to fix it?
cheers
all the best!

Hi,
New 210's come with a shorting link (Solder Blob) to short the Laser Diode.

And do not alter the pot on the optical block.
