Could this be the old intermittent ribbon cable problem? That was a source of various problems in this model as I recall. Both the one from the CD board to the main board and the one from the tray to the main board. They break at the ends when they bend back and forth. Jim Myers Since 1972 Telrad Electronic Services Co.
