Shiga is such a bitch... after I posted my MKI for sale all of sudden my MKII stopped working. No more TOC. Well.. luckily there was only a few possibilities this could be the cause. First I thought it might be a big failure. Thus I measured everything but all was fine. Then I switched the 16p Cable - of course nothing. At last I switched laser unit (wanted to prevent that cause its the modified laser with MKP and Mica) and... oh wonder, instant TOC. Now I just need to get the sporadious reading failures... need to play with the trim POT on laser.... luckily it's working as before
XO1 is CSB455J (Mouser link)
C2 and C3 are XO stabilizing capacitors. If looking up the SC7461-103 data sheet their value can be easily found ;-)

The big pad is a CR2032 SMD battery holder space.

Any idea of parameters of missing elements on IR remote ?
Hi Tbi n all.
Been a while I owned the Shiga set and only to continue the project now. Come across some problems. No detection or track even I changed 4 spare ones. I can't confirm some had spoit, but one surely function which I removed from Boom box. When I swtich on, The motor spin a few times, display blink and end result is 00.
What had I done? Thinking the LCD ribbon is detachable but I had destroy the red (holder?) . I also re solder the button pcb was planning to mount it somewhere initially. I also test all connection using multimeter and all seems good.
Please advice what should I do next to get it start function well. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Alfred

No TOC is usually no problem of the ribbon cable. First thing I would do is to switch transport (laser unit or complete SP101 if you cannot switch laser) itself. If still ko TOC change the 16 Pin FPC cable. If that doesnt help, we will talk again. Then we need to verify other problems (first of all 5V rails and PSU 8V +-50-100mV).
Hi Fabian.
Will buy 1 more new SP101N. I did explore a little and also find FPc quite common. Is there any brands I should consider?

Hi all.
While waiting for the FPC to arrive, I tried swapping the current FPC and lx4 lens to boom box set. All 4 lens at least can read the no. Of tracks altough can't play. Seems not really the fault. I measure dc shows 7.96v. Any thing I should look into?

Shiga mkii
Spin when switch on. Lens move a bit, then shows 00. All but no reaction except - cd door - after I press stop, spin and lens move abit. Then 00. (u cant hear the lens reading.)
Boom box set
Spin when switch on. Lens move more, then shows track. All button no reaction. (u can hear the lens reading).
Both using same FPC and lens swap.

You mean this?There are 2pin,3pin,6pin connectors.
Are they PH type connectors?

I found pin connectors.
But I ordered wrong flat flexible cable.
Seller said the cable fit for spf101n 16pin but
It looks too thin.
Do you know which flat cable?

Oscillator 455kHz
And two 100pf ceramic capasitors
Connection done today.
Turntable looks unstable,I might need new motor or better fit lid.
Unfortunately I don't have dac with spdif yet so I need to add RCA input.
