New to the forum but visited a few times and know there’s a lot of knowledge here.
I’ve got a Marantz CD63ki and I’ve got 2 issues with it. The first is that sometime when the tray is opened it shuts immediately without anything being pressed. The second is that the laser sometimes skips and this has slowly got worse. I know the transport is east to swap over but can’t seem to locate a genuine unit. There are plenty on AliExpress etc but these all look aftermarket as the motors seem smaller than the original.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum!
A switch detects when the drawer is fully open so try to locate and examine it. It could be dirty, worn or out of position.
Skipping can be a mechanical problem, so check the optical pickup drive system for signs of damaged gear teeth, dirt accumulation, dried up lubrication or slipping belts.
An obvious first course of action is to clean the laser lens.
