I just purchased the unit from someone that updated their system and this unit has a few issues. First, the glass door is disconnected from the hinges, but does not look broken. Second, the lower clear plastic peg (with the unit on the vertical stand) is broken off, which I see in other posts senses if the glass door is closed. Third, when I hold the glass in place with the door closed, it pushes on the CD mechanism, which I would think is not the way it is supposed to be.
I am trying to test the unit and to do so I layed it down flat so the door could rest in the proper position, and I put a CD in the second spot from the top - the CD transport is currently at the lowest position and with the unit off it moves easily. When I turn it on and push the load button on the second slot it shows CD 2 on the display, but the transport does not move - trying to move it manually it feels locked.
In reviewing other posts about the safety features and the posts being some sort of light sensors, I assume it is not working because the lower post is broken off. I also don't see any light from either post, but I don't know if there should be a visible light. I am wondering if there is a way to defeat the safety feature to make it work so that I can at least test the CD capability.
Also, I can't find the serial number/model number on the unit, is it hidden somewhere? I looked in the black door and in the popour where the cables go.
Any help on any of my questions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Rich
