Most likely not. Might be a CD centering issue but hard to say. It does come up with the error code of E5 which is a slider issue. Odd... but I noticed a hum when the CD was loaded and that sounds like motor trying to spin (maybe the spindle or maybe the pick-up motor). There could be an issue of dried grease on the laser pick-up track since it has to be come in closer to the spindle motor (e.g.: if the player was used mostly for LD, that would explain grease getting dried up on the inner most track preventing smooth movement for the pick-up).
@@MovieGuy846 change the pick up.It will fix it.Pioneer had a few models with laser failure.I still have a couple of players myself that I have never changed..lol..
@@SurgemanX The more I watch this video, the less likely I think it is a centering or bad laser issue. The fact that the CD never gets a spin up (which is needed for the player to identify the disc) tells me there is something jamming up possibly on the clamper side or the spindle motor platform. There is a spring loaded piece on the spindle platform called a PRC Hub that supposed to go down when a CD is loaded (it will stay up with an LD since the larger hole of an LD just passes around it). I would check this out by simply using your fingers to see if it goes down smoothly. If not, it may just need some oil to loosen it up (or need a cleaning).
@@MovieGuy846 it's a defective laser.Seen it a many of times when I was repairing them years back.RCA(Pioneer made) and the Pioneers were always the worst models for it.It's a pricey little pick up assembly that's for sure.The only one I found was Aliexpress for $128.00.I have 1 in storage same model,and the same issue.
@@SurgemanX That’s a lot of money to spend on essentially a guess that you are making. A good repair technician knows that giving that kind of advice without actually seeing the device in person is bad troubleshooting. Also, it doesn’t hurt to investigate all the potential avenues first that could cause this issue before spending a fortune on a part that may not be an issue. And honestly speaking, there is something obviously wrong if the spindle doesn’t turn the CD (you don’t hear that hum?). Lastly, I’ve owned players since 1988 and not one of my now 15 working players have ever had an issue playing a CD or LD (laser pick-ups on LD players don’t go bad that often). It’s actually more common to see a failed spindle motor before a laser pick-up. And today with people shipping players for purchase, now you can throw in mechanical alignment as one of the more common issues now for player issues.
Шикарная техника прошлых лет!Был такой аппарат у Мартынова Федора Алексеевича.И сейчас в рабочем состоянии.😮😮😮
I never knew what were great about Laser Discs.
