Hello all,

Thank you for reading this post. I am new to owning a laserdisc player. I picked one up recently with about 20 movies. When I went to play my first disc I could see the blue output from the player and it read "play". I heard the disk spin up and then heard some clicking. After that I saw the word open appear on the screen and the disk ejected.I took the cover off and took a video of this happening but the video is too big to upload. Im thinking that the issue has todo with the laser but am not sure. Any ideas out there?

The Magnavox WRV100 is from 1990 and is based on a Philips player.

Very basic player, but at that age I would check the belts and any broken gears inside (parts found inside the chassis).
