pioneer cdx-p620s

Yes. Remove the upper case, and pull the rubber dampers from the mechanism corners VERY CAREFULLY. Disconnect the copper grounding strap. Remove the 2 springs on either end of the mech holding it to the frame. CAREFULLY rotate the mech up 90 deg so the loading slot is facing up, be careful not to tear the flexible PCB that connects the CD core unit to the extension PCB. Once you have flipped the unit up, unlock one end of the flexible PCB (White ribbon-type cable) and you can remove the mech. Once you have the mech out look and see if a CD is in the loaded position. If not, simply unlock the magazine with the white lever underneath it. If a CD IS loaded, disconnect the other flexible PCB from the moving stage mechanism to prevent damage to the motor controller IC and use a 9v battery to operate the loading motor until the CD is retracted into the magazine. Then unlock the magazine with the lever. Extreme caution must be used if you ever want to use the unit again, they are not difficult to repair but are highly sensitive to bent parts. If you don't feel comfortable working on it I can remove the CD's and give you a repair estimate for $15.00 if you're in the US.
