Thanks so much for the video, unfortunately I don't have a cat, so I had to skip a few steps in your instructions . Despite not having the proper feline tools I was able to disassemble the CD Drive, but found nothing in particular wrong. However reassembly solved my drive not opening issue. So I have to suspect root cause was an alignment issue in the drive (gears, sensor?) because it's working now. YAY! Also wanted to mention that there is a pry point (for a screwdriver on the rear of the control head cover that will release the top cover. For all you Bose haters (belly tripper) out there, the root cause component is a Toshiba product. Bought the system in 2002 from the Navy Exchange for use in my BEQ while stationed at Amphib Base Little Creek (Go Navy, beat Army). It's lasted 14 1/2 years so far; I'd say it's a pretty durable product. My Daughter says she's going to take it to college.
Extremely helpful video and enjoyed your kitty! My ca. 2004 Bose 321 CD/DVD drawer suddenly stopped ejecting and the motor would run on startup/reset with no joy. It turned out that the gear had popped off the drive motor shaft. A little super glue, some minor adjustments, and all is well!
What usually causes these gears to crack is the user NOT using the open close button to close the disk tray. It is easier to just shove the tray until it goes in. This puts stress on the plastic gears, and we know what happens to plastic under stress.
I also had a cracked motor gear. Fortunately once I took the DVD drive front cover off and forced opened the drawer I could see and access the gear, I didn’t remove any panels. Krazy glue did the trick! The only issue was the drawer didn’t want to close after the repair. I used a screwdriver to push the tray off the gears and allowed it to cycle. Then still using the screwdriver lifted the drawer all the way in. Worked for me but at least I knew what to do if that didn’t work thanks to the video.
Nice repair job. I must agree Bose make very good electronic gear. Its a shame this unit is let down by a crap Toshiba drive. Still you fixed the bay door drive motor and kept the unit out of land fill for a little while longer. Oh yeah that is a one beautiful cat you have there.
I bet I have an old IDE DVD-ROM buried in my basement locker... IF I didn't toss it on clean up day, this past summer... I was given a 3-2-1 with a stripped tray drive about 10 days ago Am piecing together a better amplified TV/FM antenna from Radio Shack For FM/DX of our Chicagoland Jazz station Stay tuned... J.C.
No DVD-ROM turned up in my junk. But a fine CD-RW DID! I only intend to use the BOSE for Audio In the courtyard Not with TV or for video stuff DVD's My MacBooks will take care of THAT! The IS a Toshiba Combi drive for $10 ppd on eBai Several Even a slot loader.... IF I WISH.... J.C.
got it.... my model has a lot different switch...but the comments about centering switch I attempted multiple ways.. with optic head in down position I finally got it. round part of switch in center of range of motion and black slider in center of range.... it works thanks to you
Thank you I would have never been able to fix mine with out it. Found cracked gear as well. My thoughts would be the gear is presses on with slight tension to not slip. Plastic as it ages has a tendency to shrinks slightly and and become more brittle... shrink on a steel shaft ....no where to go so it cracks.
Thank you for this! This worked. Unfortunately, I cannot get the removable cable on the front panel to stay in. How did you get yours to stay in? You edited out the part where you put yours in so I’m not sure how you did it
I don't have pets now but used to have cats and dogs living ok together! If you think of taking holiday in UK Newark antiques have old radios ect, and there is a memorabilia shop has old radios in Manchester UK is a few minutes from Piccadilly station.
I watched this video over a year ago and I extracted the dvd player from the housing and I could not get the tray to open then, and I'm trying now and I still can't get the tray to open. I tried to follow what you did at the 7:35 mark and I still can't get the tray to eject. Plus that ribbon cable below your left hand at the same 7:35 mark detached from that upper part. Is that a problem or is it an easy fix?
Thank you Mr. 12voltvids for the how to vids. Extremely helpful, I have a Bose AV 321. I'm dealing with a low hum from both R/L speakers on all sources with or without any inputs connected. Any ideas on fix would be most helpful. Assuming a bad or failing cap?? Thanks
IF the $5 ppd. 3.5mm Mono Male to Female F adapter WORKS to allow me to use my surplus co-ax connected Radio Shack Amplified FM/TV antenna... I will then buy a nice working 2006 Toshiba Combo IDE drive I've found on eBay, for under $10ppd.. Even the facia plate stuff should swap over... Then my free BOSE will have cost me all of $15 For great courtyard garden TUNES! Two incandescent light bulbs keep the store room TOASTY! Until SPRING! J.C.
Great video. I still don't think it is my kind of repair job. Would you repair my unit with the same problem? However, I believe my Bose has the belt drive. If you have a shop, may be I can send it to you? Bose said they would fix it too but I am sure it would be more expensive.
can you elaborate on the switch needing to be adjusted to neutral, did repair as you outlined(thank you) when press eject the tray came out then directly back in. did this a few times then came out to be loaded and stayed open. the eject button would not close it and it didn't want to be physically pushed into closed position. mine is sd-m1612, mfg'd june 2002. has a bit different switch, but i can not tell how you are adjusting it around the 9:55 to 10:20. any help is appreciated.
+shane morris The switch is a lever type that is pressed by the loading gear. In the fully ejected position it is held to one side, and in the fully loader position it is held the other way. In between these extremes is the neutral position, where the switch would sit at rest in the middle. It is spring loaded to naturally return to the center position. When you install the switch make sure the cam gear is not at the extreme position. If your tray timing is off, the switch will never activate in either the fully open or closed position.
Between youtube, and my paypal supporters I do OK. Patreon is a joke though. Don't even make enough from patreon per month to pay my internet bill. As of today patreon support about 55.00 per month, when my internet bill to upload these huge videos is 85.00 per month.
Looks easy enough I'm just hoping my cat has at least the same electronics degree as yours, as steve martin said in the man with 2 brains WHILE HE WAS INSTALLING A CARANIAL SCREW TOP IN THE OPERATING ROOM (WHO LET THAT CAT IN HERE?)
Great video- Made in America!! On the subject my 321 just quit one day last week we were jamming out waiting for hurricane Irma b/c thats what we do down here -the volume was up to 80 the speakers were bumping and then the speakers went silent no sound-total fail right (I pray for the victims affected by Irma) so following I researched it- tried to factory reset and it powers up fine but still no sound. I hear an arc or a snap in the speakers at times when I plug/unplug the unit to reset it but still no sound. Any suggestions?
Please help! Bose 3-2-1 series 1 model Will not power up. When power came back on, system would dimly light up for 5-10 seconds, then go off. Can not turn it on using remote or button. Have tried unplugging, waiting 60 seconds, then trying again. No luck.
+Koffi Banan The gear has a Crack an therefore one of the teeth th spacing is a little wider between these teeth an it makes a noise every rotation of the gear. The reason it wasn't opening was because the motor shaft was slipping in the gear as with the Crack it is now loose. I didn't have a replacement gear. I tried a different ide DVD rom drive. They work in my old apex dvd player that used a generic drive, but not on bose. Bose checks the drive firmware and it won't even turn on with a different drive installed. They want you to buy a replacement drive from them, or more likely send the unit to their repair facility. This fix should hold. The glue will prevent the gear from slipping and should keep the gear from totally breaking. For years and years this was done at the shop I worked at to patch up low torque gears that were unavailable an they held out for a long time. Sometimes you got to do what you can to keep these old units working. There was a lot cut from this vid. I did try to replace the drive but it didn't turn on so I dropped it as that would have been the best possible repair, slap in a new drive. I'll do one on the apex as it needs a new drive and now I have one to put in it.
+Koffi Banan The racket the drive makes is the gears meshing. Sure they could have used a belt drive and it would have been silent, but a gear drive is more reliable. That is until a plastic gear breaks.
Oh, don't get me wrong, i think it's a great fix! Was just wondering if they were this noisy from the factory. Thanks again for taking the time to do these videos, I enjoy them a lot and learn a great deal! Greetings from Belgium!
+Koffi Banan Perhaps not quite as loud as it is now, but yes you definitely hear the drive opening. It is nothing more than a PC DVD rom drive. Now some of them (the quiet ones) use a belt drive, but all the ones that use a direct gear driven drive the gears do get a little loud as they star to wear a bit. The advantage to gears is they shouldn't break, but I believe these cracks are caused by the user not using the open/close button to close the drawer, but rather shove it in, and that puts much more stress on the plastic parts than they would normally encounter bring driven by the loading motor.
So the firmware only allows use of a certain drive. Firmware can be hacked. It would be cool if you could use and CD or DVD drive in this thing. I got a bunch kickin around that I pulled out of old computers.
I had a bose wave radio/CD. Bought it from a friend's Yard sale. It ran maybe a couple of hours. I knew what the problem was, dead capacitors and it used those crappy SMD caps that always fail, look at the sega game gear.
A generic AM Loop antenna with a 3.5 mm male plug... Found in my parts bins.... WORKS BETTER FOR FM and FM Stereo reception with my BOSE 9-2-1 Than ANY amplified or T type FM antenna here For ALL station strengths Local and DX.... How about THAT!!! (-8D J.C.
I like watching your videos the cat is very cute... If you probably made some bedding room for him on an area he would be and bring your ratings up more.. several of my CZcams ers have animals and we like it.

What I can confirm is that the 321 system checks for a specific firmware on the drive, and it will not power up with any other DVD drive connected.

HEY GUYS IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS A BOSE 321 GSX DVD HOME ENTERTAINTMENT SYSTEM SETUP DISC I REALLY NEED ONE. THE SYSTEM STILL WORKS BUT THE DISC IS MISSING AND I CAN'T SET IT UP WITHOUT IT. IF SO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANKS,,,,,,
American made is 3 to 4 times more than chinese made. If you like American made stuff then go aheand and buy only American made stuff instead of bashing chinese or foreign made stuff!!
+Joe Reilly I support American and Canadian made products and don't mind paying more. I avoid buying Chinese junk when possible, but many times that isn't possible but when it is I pick the local stuff, and for the most part have gotten a better made product. My cars come from Canada and USA, my motorcycle is from Milwaukee. Never had a days trouble. Can't say the same for the cars I had in the past that came out of Germany.
Okay I had it 13volt I have both sides off and the door's still attached! Now what? I was supposed to be cleaning for my Apt. Inspection! Now I got a table full of tools and a open device I'm going to screem
+Tanks in Space Well apple has never been known for making quality products. It is all marketing, but the "Crapple fans" will keep on lining up and being spoon fed this garbage time and time again, and paying a premium for rebadged Samsung.
+Donald Ellett That would be apple, to replace a burner in an Imac. One of the guys I used to work with got that type of quote. He just bought an external burner, end of story, but that is what Apple quoted him.

That was a great cracked gear fix!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've got to remember that!!! Thanks!
The drive reminds me of early Blu-ray and HD DVD players, standard IDE drives inside. Had proprietary software though, can't just swap them into a PC.
No problems with a Mac!

Looks like a Toshiba. These ones without belt are harder to fix.
thankyou,had 1 come in today with the same problem
Love your Siamese cat
i like the cat...i think he likes to help you..😁
I bet I have an old IDE DVD-ROM buried in my basement locker...
IF I didn't toss it on clean up day, this past summer...
I was given a 3-2-1 with a stripped tray drive about 10 days ago
Am piecing together a better amplified TV/FM antenna from Radio Shack
For FM/DX of our Chicagoland Jazz station
Stay tuned...

Nice that the cat had a bell, because it is supposed to prevent them from surprising and killing birds.
Cat doesn't go outside. Unless the birds come in they are safe
@@12voltvids A good idea; thanks for doing that.
No DVD-ROM turned up in my junk.
But a fine CD-RW DID!
I only intend to use the BOSE for Audio
In the courtyard
Not with TV or for video stuff
DVD's
My MacBooks will take care of THAT!
The IS a Toshiba Combi drive for $10 ppd on eBai

Even a slot loader....

Beautyful cat ❤️
Thanks I was able to get the redbox dvd out.
Redbox? I didn't know those existed anymore.
your video"s are great I live in Minnesota so now that it's winter my garage gets super cold..
It rarely gets down below freezing here. Down to perhaps 25 on the old scale, -7 on the C scale.

This siamese cat its NOT well "engineered" because it was breeded originally in Thailand and not in the US.
Thanks for the video. Helped me find the same issue! How long will the gear last with Krazy Cluing them together?
Thanks! Just saved my 321 from the skip!
How did u place the switch in neutral position?
Is there a notch in the plastic that the toggle end sits in on the underside of the disc tray?
I love Siamese they're such characters
sorry I haven't watched you for awhile I was working on a different hobby of mine small engine repair but I'm back
Just curious....how much do you charge to look at my dvd drive... It's doing the same thing as you described.
What, Bose doesn't believe in screws? The whole thing snaps together like line of those models for kids when they're too young for glue.
only my cd player works on my system. i get no sound from radio or aux. please let me know if you have a solution.
thank you,
IF the $5 ppd. 3.5mm Mono Male to Female F adapter
WORKS to allow me to use my surplus
co-ax connected Radio Shack Amplified FM/TV antenna...
I will then buy a nice working
2006 Toshiba Combo IDE drive
I've found on eBay, for under $10ppd..
Even the facia plate stuff should swap over...

i dont know why old people talk crap about stuff made in China if you ask them to make high quality stuff they will

You got a lovely cat

I went thru the step's,still not working motor does not turn freely.What next?thank's
how much do these drives cost now?can't be very expensive.
+Alan Henes I didn't bother pricing the drive out. There is a good chance that it is NLA from bose now due to the age of the unit.

Liteon did the same thing with their stand alone recorder. I tried replacing the lite-on burner with another lite on drive, the same model number but a later firmware and the recorder refused to recognize it.

I rest my case.
Oh the cat... haha
So ppl pay stupid $$ for bose & it has a dvd rom inside it omg!! 🙈🤣🤣
Probably she smell a dog.My cat has red hairs,when i eat or do something she always want to go outside for poop.
$800.00 to replace a dvd drive - ridiculous !!
