Roksan Caspian Skipping

Hi,
I have an issue on a Roksan Caspian with skipping ! I found that the CD turns a bit loose like a CD not well centered?
Is it a jerking tray motor while reading the CD?
I guess the motor is used and must be changed... Are parts easy to find?
Kind regards
Bernard
 
Where to buy a Spindle motor Sanko 71820?

I need first to replace this spindle motor since it plays far to loose with a jerking behavior that obviously prevents the laser head to read accurately!
Please let me know where to get this precious part!
regards
Bernard
 
hello,
I have removed the mechanism to put some grease in the spindle motor.
I also removed the electronic board to check the underside of the board where the Zener diode is soldered and found that one leg looks like copper but not with a nice solder!
So i desoldered both legs or this Zener diode.
The hell was to desolder the Digital output lead because the wire is very short.
After remounting the Caspian Player i have no more issues: it's the tenth CD that plays OK!
;-)
The only issue is that the Caspian cannot play my ripped CD that play without a hitch on my Micromega Leader player rejuvenated with a CDM4 replacement thanks to Manfred Hiller!
But the ******* Zener diode is still dying hot so i will make a mod with a heatsink to prevent damaging the mother board!
I may thank you especially Molly from Canada for describing the Zener diode issue and also Tiefbassuebertr.
