3pt1lumina Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Off of a salvage car at work, I was able to get a 1.5 Gen CD player. It works nice and is in good shape, but the CD player doesn't work. It reads 'err'.. Can these units be rebuilt? It was a free unit so I wouldn't mind putting a little money into it if I could get it fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3pt1lumina Posted March 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Top is off...where is the lens? I hate electronics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake91 Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 i dont know much about electronics. hell i dont know anything about them. i have only ever taken apart a ps2 to clean it, but i had spare parts afterwards, but i do know you will have to take more apart that that because the lense is going to be on the bottom of the cp player i hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy K Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 look through the hole on the upper left, the small "drilled" hole. the lens is below that. you will need a q-tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian P Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Do it again. Blow compressed air thru the unit if you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
