I have a Pioneer CD player, model PD-M450 which has a very intermittant ribbon cable from the laser to the main board. It appears as though the cable is permanently connected at the laser end. Is this cable available by itself or do you have to order the whole laser pickup? Does anyone have part numbers for the cable and/ or the laser pickup?
