Need spindle motor for Panasonic DVD player

[Burnedfingers]

Hi,

I have replace the spindle motor in my Panasonic DVD RV31 for the second time only to have it fail again after only 12-15 DVD's being played on it.

Does anyone have a replacement motor number from MCM or other parts vendor?

Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Joe

Thanks for the reply

That gives me the spindle motor part number as RXQ0745B

However since I have already replaced this several times I am needing a motor from another source.

Hi Joe,
What is the failure mode?
You might want to look at the motor drive waveform.

Chris,

Simple motor failure. A drop of lube and it will run for a while and then stop. I would assume bad bearings. I think I will just head to the trash can with it and make a note not to purchase Panasonic again.

Hi Joe,
That's interesting. Panasonic normally makes reliable products.

The spindle motors come from other manufacturers. I once bought some Mabuchi motors. When they arrived it was clear they were Chinese copies. It was the distributor that was responsible, even though they were listed under the proper part number.

Bearings don't go bad that fast either, so those motors where junk to start with. I'll bet that same motor is used by many makes.

Bearings aren't supposed to go bad that quick but then again the same thing happened to the first motor.

I have the Panny DVD-RV35 (I think) and it's running fine after a few years (sounds great on Digital out btw).

I did had a problem with the Panny DVD-E50 (recordable DVD player) - had an issue with the mainboard circuit shorting out - So I bought an identical broken one off ebay for $16 and before I could swap the part (mainboard) I realized there was a DVD stuck in it. I removed it and it worked fine. So I sold my original broken one on ebay and got $22 for it. Cripes!

Panny usually makes good stuff...I would just pick up a DVD-RV35 (or another newer model) and try that route...

Joe,

where did you buy the spindle motor?
Did you get it directly from panasonic?
I replaced a lot of spindle motor for dvdrv31 in our
service center but i never had a problem so far.
sometimes the spindle drive also goes bad.
Does it give you an error? did you go to the test mode?
How many hours does it show on the testmode before it fail?
anyway, I was kinda surprise with that because the part number that you use is already the latest one and still fail
