Friends, Finally got this unit fixed. Hope I NEVER see another one. The display was showing "M ERROR." I thought that meant memory error, but it means "mechanical error." Thanks from tips from several on this list, I ordered several gears and rollers before I took the thing totally apart. The problem turned out to be four rollers that the "doughnut" that holds the disks rides on. The rubber on the rollers had deteriorated and spongy. Like driving your car with a flat tire. The part number is 6142499351. Tritronics lists this item as "roller assembly." Well, the <assembly> consists of a plastic roller with rubber tire. Had to reorder three more to replace all four. Took me five hours to do the job. Special thanks to Ron Purkhiser for sending a copy of the service manual for this beast!
