Firstly, have you checked if the power cord is securely plugged in and the outlet has power? You mentioned that the light doesn't indicate that it's on, so it's possible that the device is not receiving power.

Assuming that the device is receiving power, let's move on to troubleshooting the CD tray issue. Here are a few steps you can take to try and resolve the issue:

1. Give the CD player a gentle tap: Sometimes, the tray can become stuck due to an obstruction or a mechanical issue. A gentle tap on the CD player may help it to loosen up and release the tray. However, be sure not to hit it too hard as this could cause further damage.

2. Manually try to open the tray: On the front of the CD player, there should be a small hole near the tray. You can use a paperclip or a similar item to push into the hole, which should open the tray.

3. Try a different power outlet: Sometimes, an issue with the power outlet can cause the device to malfunction. Plug the device into a different outlet to see if this resolves the issue.

If none of these steps work, you may need to seek further assistance from a professional or contact TEAC customer support for guidance. I hope this information helps!
