I have this Philips CD371 with dead laser. Before two or three years I turn the current potentiometer a little and the CD was reading without any problem. But yesterday it totally died... Even no IR emission. I had two another Philips CDC-586 (6-CD changer) with CDM4/20, I want to use their laser unit to bring back to life CD371 🙂 All is already mounted, but I don't now how to adjust laser current, where to measure, how must be the current... I won't kill the "new" CDM4 with wrong settings... Can somebody help me?

The laser current should not need adjusting .. you will shorten the life of the laser.

I know, but it was "adusted"... Now I want to adjust it to normal value, but I don't know how

You should try your CDM in another CD Player, to eliminate some variables.

I already tested it, it's dead - even digital foto can't "see" the IR emission...
