Hi,
I'm very new to this forum, but from what I've read so far is excellent stuff!
Now my post:
I have 2 DENON dn650f cd players, around 5-6 years old, pro stuff.
They served well, but never really got maintenance. So here's what I plan to do, and I would welcome your ideas/comments:
Replace the laser-units (KSS240A).
THey've been cleaned before, but both now occasionally can't read TOC, skip, etc.
Q's - does it make sense to remove the lens and clean both sides?
if the complete unit is replaced, what adjustments must be made?
Clean and re-grease all moving parts
This means the cd-tray, the platter, the motor spindles, the laser drive slead.
Q's - what solvents to use to effectively remove old oil traces from the motors? Could I rince them in a bath of solvents, dry them and re-grease?
Replace drive belts
Maybe not immediately required, but since I'm taking the unit apart anyway.... and these are cheap
The ribbon cables from the laser unit to the mainboard measure ok, but would you advise me to replace them also?
thanks all of you for your good support!
