Peter, I'm slowly building the repair database on DVD players as they come in. Courtesy of Jason from Excel Dist: Q14100 is # 246967 which I have in stock for $1.05. That is an exchange unit and no service lit or complete parts list is available as far as I know. However I do have a partial parts list : 240105 - F14101 252374 - T14101 239132 - CR14102 243844 - CR14103 155276 - CR14106 227919 - CR14116 234048 - CR14120 233206 - U14101 231525 - U14102 246967 - Q14100 252337 - R14106 242065 - R14105 If you need anything else let me know.

RCA RC5215P SMPS -lightning??? - the question this unit looks cheap is it worth bothering with and are there any common high failure scenerios for it. The following were listed as bad laser asymblies?? (not seeing disk) Yamaha DVD-C900 JVC XV-D2000 I haven't seen any satisfactory database for DVD repairs or common faults. The other question is one of my freinds was telling me not to bother with replacing laser as they generally won't work.
