Question posted by mclean5857 on August 25th, 2016

Player Turns Itself Off And On.

Replaced all 3 belts (2 for turntable and 1 for the door) two days ago. Plugged in the power cord, turned it on with the power button, opened the door, loaded in 5 CDs, and then hit the Play button. The unit appeared to work fine playing through the CDs and on Shuffle like I like to play my CDs.Yesterday evening when I went to use it, the unit began to turn itself off and on, even showing "OFF" on the digital screen. It would even try to load a CD, begin to play, then go find another CD. It eventually cuts itself off after going through this cycle several times.I even left the power cord unplugged all night last night and when I plugged in back in this afternoon, it started to do the same weird thing again.So, what is going on with my unit and how do I correct it?

Hi! I suggest cleaning all the parts to make sure the resistance is not overpowering the motor. Dirt may have gone in when you replaced the belts.

See this video for details.
