My recorder has not been used very much, but now my player drawer does not open. The recorder drawer does.
When I push the open button, I hear a sound like it is trying to open but it does not.
What should I do???
It's the belt from the spindle motor to the gear. It's worn and can't grip the spindle anymore. If you elp it to start off it works. Open the unit, remove the cd tray and it's underneath at the front. You can replace with a similar size elastic band.
I haw CDR 25/26. Same problem! Than I Open the unit, but how to remove the cd tray and it's underneath at the front? I can`t do that! And where I can buy a new belt?

I have the same problem, although it's the recorder drawer that won't open. It sounds like it's trying to open, but it won't. I used to have the same trouble with the other drawer, but usually if I just pulled at the drawer with my fingernail while pushing the "open" button, it would open. Now that the recorder side is doing the same thing, I tried pulling on it as I pressed the "open" button, and it started to come out, but now it's jammed and I can't get it to close properly. Help please!
sorry, the drive is a worm, with its own motor. my problem is I can't get the tray/drive out; it looks like you would have to take off the faceplate (what you see from the front of the machine), but I can't tell because I can't get the tray to open at all.
I apologize, I was wrong, the tray is operated by a rubber band/belt (the worm is for positioning the laser). Replacing the belt requires taking the tray out. Gettting the HK tray mechanism out requires removing the faceplate, which slides upward out of the tray. This is easy enough if the tray is even partially open, but impossible if the tray is locked closed. I was unable to force the tray open against the belt. The last step in closing the tray raises the drive against the CD. This is done by a slide the moves crosswise from right to left on the underside of the tray holder (facing the front of the CD player). With the tray loose it is possible to reach underneath and push this slide left. Force is not needed, but firmness is. The slide is located close to the right edge and close to the front of the tray.
Once the tray is out the belt can be replaced from the top through the cutout in the tray. I had to remove several ribbon and plug connectors for each tray, more for the one on top of the motherboard.
The player door will not open. How do you get it open to change the belt? Where can I get a new belt?
