its the rubber pad on the clamping spindle.
I don't know who has it to replace.
you can try opening it and cleaning the black rubber pad that has dried up.
Good Luck.

I'm having trouble with my LD player; whenever I place a Laserdisc in the player and close it, it whines and whirs a bit, before opening the tray again. I've discovered that CDs work flawlessly. This unit used to work fairly well, but I hadn't used it in a couple years. Any idea what could be causing this? Any help at all would be much appreciated, thanks. |

Probably the loading belt. A search on here should find few threads. You could start here: Help with Pioneer Laserdisc Players!!! |

Also, what would you suggest cleaning it with? (Sorry for the hassle, I have very little experience working with Laserdisc players)

do a search on lddb, there is a post somewhere. I don't even have any idea what to use, just remember reading that once. but then I just got a new rubber pad and forgot about the issue. Good Luck. ________________________________ the rein-o official signature:

I'll give it a go tomorrow and check back in with the results. |

Just wanted to update and say that I cannot thank you enough for the advice. I opened it up today, cleaned the rubber pad, and it's now in working order once again! Just finished watching a movie.

Congrats, but sooner than later you will need to replace that rubber pad. ________________________________ the rein-o official signature:
