Marantz CD94 doesnt play

Daveylodge · 23rd December 2006, 01:32 PM

I have used this CD94 for ten years plus. Today I come to it and it only reluctantly shuts the drawer when loading, then when shut there is a slight groaning noise and the macihine does not play. The drawer re-opens a moment or two later and the "ERROR" message comes up.
I have removed the lid and can see that the drawer is sticking a bit. A bit of lube on the runners and it seems fine now. But the disc does not spin and tray re-opens after a few seconds. Any thoughts? Is there a main drive motor and if so where do I get a spare and how do I change it?

Check and see if there is a loading belt slipping. I have a Nak that was acting very similar.The tray would open and close but the tray wasn't closing completely.The funny groaning noise may be the belt slipping on the motor pulley.
