Re: Beogram CD3300 Lid won't open.

Yes, the belt. But the lid mechanism also works with a microswitch which can also be faulty. Or the lid can get misadjusted with time.

But try the belt first, although you will find it painful to do!

There is just one belt in the machine, doing the opening and closing of the lid. If I remember correctly it's next to a motor and some gears. That's the one!

The only belt I see is on the opposite side attached to a motor. Is there another or is that the belt you are referring to?

Probably the belt needs changing. It will still look good but won't function anymore. The replacement belt I used was 46mm, 1.4mm. Dillen can probably supply one!

My Beogram CD3300 was operating perfectly until recently. Now after not using it for some time, when I push the "eject" button, the lid will not open. It rises a tiny bit, but needs to be manually lifted the rest of the way. I have it on my bench now with the bottom removed, but I don't see any obvious faults. Any ideas?
