I had to pull out my LV player to compare the LV of "Roger Rabbit" with the BD. This player is almost 25 years old, and is getting mechanically cranky. To wit...
The motor-driven drawer closes, but won't open unless I tip the player forward. * Moving the drawer manually reveals substantial friction, possibly due to deteriorated lubricant.
I downloaded the service manual from "manual buddy". (Yes, the name is suspicious-sounding, but it was only $5, and the scan was excellent.) Unfortunately, the manual doesn't discuss mechanical servicing (other than alignment).
Before tearing into the unit... Two questions...
Thanks in advance.
- It weighs over 30 pounds and is built like a tank.
