Panasonic Home theater unit - mods?

Hi All,

I have a PanasonicSAHT670 that has worked well for quite a few years. Recently the 5-DVD changer has begun jamming. I could get a replacement for about 80-bucks but it is a major tear down as the replacement does not come with the DVD accessing components. I have begun to disassemble and it ain't going to be simple with hundreds of parts.

So I thought I would just leave the changer out and use it as the amplifier and add a DVD player (also Panasonic) I used with an amp, before buying the Home Theater version.

Unfortunately the unit needs a sequence of signals from the changer as all I get is "wait" on the display. The changer has several limit switches which I have tried taping shut but it seems the unit may need a sequence before moving on from the "Wait" as no combination of switches lets it move on. It is not locked up as when I hit the "stand- by" button it goes through the normal shut down process and says "Goodbye."

Anyone have any suggestion how to make this work without the changer?

Thanks in advance.

I am also posting another question with an alternative. The Subject for that is "Mix and match speaker impedance"

I am cross-posting to "sci.electronics.repair" (got yelled at here the last time I duplicated a post at "repair" and didn't cross-post instead) Hope I got it right this time.
