A massive thanks for these instructions; without them we wouldn't have had a chance of fixing our (now 29 years old) Sony CDP-715E. Whilst the internals were a bit different to the unit shown in the video, with 4 hands & a bit of logic (and a new belt, at only 6€) we got it done. Thanks again!!!
Hi, I see you payed in euro so I had to ask where you got the belt as I’m also in a euro zone! Thanks, rob in ireland
This is perhaps another quick and easy repair. A light clean of the pulleys / optical pickup, a new belt and the unit is back in business. No blown capacitors or any other faults found. Just a weak loading belt. The way I determine if a belt is healthy or not (when replacing originals with new ones), is the "elasticity test" (gently stretch it a tiny bit, and if it springs back quickly, it's OK; if it springs back very slowly, it's bad and should not be used).
A big thank you for these clear instructions! Without them I wouldn’t have been able to fix it. And to be honest it was quite easy to replace the belt and clean the player. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Another Awesome Job! I love all your video's, keep them coming. I'm looking forward to seeing my Adcom Amplifier's on Video. Thank you.
Just want to say thank you very much indeed for this video - I have a very similar model, the CDP-XE220 and this video gave me the confidence to take it to bits and replace the belt which has brought it back to life.
Works exactly as shown on the video. Very clear.
thank you so much for the tutorial , fixed the problem in no time
Thank you so much for this video i have the exact same player, and had the same problem, followed the video and it worked, 😊
The front display on the unit has been used in those fancier sony cd players from 1992-1993 so cool
Thank you..
Excellent
Great video, thanks, mate
Sir, Just how does a bad belt cause this issue? I was thinking a tray position sensor or switch. As always - thank you!
hy.... where i can find that ruler to measure the belts?? thnxx
Interesting failure mode for a slipping belt. I have a CDP-XE530 that should have the same mechanism. No troubles though with the tray.
The rack at the bottom of the tray which the motor drives with a toothed wheel turns around in a J shape at the point the tray closes. This turns the driving wheel on a cam which lifts up the disc into the playing position. The slipping belt couldn't supply enough power to operate the cam, so it would just give up and reopen.
@@Galleitch actually I do remember the J track when I opened my 1st unit back 19 90something.
Hi, i have a yamaha cd-x3 cd player that has a problem with the laser sled not moving, when i move the sled manually the laser reads the disk.
I have down loaded a digital repair manual for the unit but as of yet not gone over it in depth. Can you suggest a point to start looking into what the problem might be? Thank you for the great videos and all the wonderfull work you have done over the years! Big Fan.
It looks like they used the parts for a bookshelf stereo and stuck them in a bigger enclosure.
The read unit fails to pop up on my Radio shack 32-1175 karaoke machine. Door opens and closes and the laser section fails to pop up. Any video to fix this problem? Thanks Metro
Hi, I have a Sony cdp 35 and have a similar problem. Cod just goes in and out and I hear the belt still spinning when the cd goes in and then it’s spit out. Can you help me with the belt replacement and tell me which belt/pulley to get how would I order one of Amazon what would I even call it 😂
Don't you do the microwave trick for old belts?
I have a sony CDP CE315 disk cd player keeps opening and closing and it was playing a cd I did not install- so wondering if it is stuck inside- when I put all 5 cds in the trays it wont do anything and it wont play any. Thanks
With the tray open, take off the top cover off and visually see if there is a loose disc inside. It may have oxidized tray in-out limit switches. You may need some deoxit D5 to clean the switch.
I have a Sony MHC 550 and the drawer keeps popping open slightly after closing, it will still play and when I skip a disk it will always go back in and work as should but then pops back open ( about an inch ) every time. I replaced all belts cleaned lens etc already but still persists . Any ideas welcome
You will need to disassemble the unit and look at the drawer in-out switch(s) and possibly spray a little electrical contact switch cleaner in them, work them back and forth many times (50 to 100) and see if it helps. Most likely the switches are oxidized, and not making good contact.
@@norcal715 thanks for this,. Will have a look .
How did you actually remove the tray completely before removing the transport coz that part wasn’t shown in your video?
I've just done this belt change today and did question that this is missing from the video. The very front of the drawer can be slid off (upwards direction - take extreme care not to damage the drawer by forcing it). Remove the 3 screws holding the drawer assy inplace (on the base as shown in the video approx 2:39) then with the front of the tray removed you can lift the whole assy off the base and away from the front panel inlet. Pull the tabs on the drawer up and then you can slide the tray away from the rest of the assy. I didn't disconnet the ribbon cables when i did so just rested against the the back of the front panel. All up and running now. Thanks to NorCal715 for the video.
I think Powerage07 answered it pretty well. @Powerage07
@@robburnley1027 I did remove the 3 screws but there's a plastic on the back of the drawer still holding the tray, making it difficult to remove the tray completely!
@NorCal715 He explained everything rather well, yes but he didn't show how he physically removed the tray! That part was edited out!
Thank you, @robburnley1027, for your advice! I have managed to separate the front of the drawer in the CDP-XE570 by following your guidance. The next step is to replace the belt!
A slightly different model, the CDP-XE570. Does anyone know how to separate the tray from the CD player, as it could not be removed from the front? I mean to separate the front of the drawer. By the way, @robburnley1027 suggested sliding it off in an upwards direction. It didn't appear to work in the CDP-XE570 upon the first attempt, but it worked with a second attempt. Thank you, @robburnley1027, for your advice!
