weird CD problem ***RESOLVED***
So, I have a Numark DJ twin CD combo, with a separate head controller, as a DJ use, it's in a flight case and supposed and used to be banging aroundin transport.
I use it now for home use, in my party room. My kit was in storage for about 5 years (in the house) and I'm now starting to get it all out. I had/have a weird problem, that, when you go to eject one side, you hear the motor, but the tray door does not open, (you get an error) , but give it a gentle love tap and it does. From then on, works a treat that is until the next time you get to power it up. By coincidence I found that keeping a CD in the tray, stops this LOL, opens everytime even after an overnight power down I DONT really wanna take it apart, could just need some lube, but anythoughts in why it will work with a CD in the tray , but not after a powerdown and a love tap fixes it Many thanks Last edited by nazali; 07-09-2023 at 09:48 PM.. |

also the other side, does this to an extent, but pressing the eject button will eventually open it, and again works there after
could be a misalignment or the mechanism might need lubricating Always wary of taking things apart as there never the same again |

I did some research on this one, and found that there is a magnet which fails to release and thus jams the release mechanism
I also found putting a blank CD in there when switching off totally fixes the issue and it has no jammed again After a few months of doing this, it has ceased to jam ! |

I also noticed this problem has now gone.
I think after a few months of use, whatever was jamming has stopped jamming, I guess, any form of mechanical bits dont like being in storage for long, the CD was in storage for about 5 years |
