If that happened, that explains a lot.

I didn't, but they looked fine to me, they didn't have any of that sludgy brownish old grease on them. I did put a little bit of grease on the gears that move the tray in and out but I didn't put any on the pulleys, at least not intentionally...probably should check there isn't any accidental overspray.

I'll have to get the white lithium grease in the tube for projects like this, but I don't currently have any so I was trying to make do with my can of white lithium grease with the little straw for (relatively) precise greasing.

I have several players to work on right now, but when I get time I think I will make a mechanism disassembly guide for these units. That orange "syrup" is everywhere and ideally it should all be replaced with white lithium grease. Yeah, I already replaced a whole bunch of that gunk but I bet there's a bunch more of it elsewhere that I can't see without disassembling the player beyond how far I was willing to go previously (removing the clamper assembly and disk tray).

It took a month for me to get back to the CLD-D501 but I had just gotten a new disc today and decided to give the player another look over. I followed this guide ( [CLD-D501][CLD-D502][CLD-D701][CLD-D702] Clamper Disassembly) and re-greased the clamper the right way this time, but I'm still having issues with the loading tray and on top of that, a disc won't play when placed inside. I don't get any kind of "No Disc" message, I just get absolutely nothing. The "PLAY" message appears briefly before going back to an all-zeroes timer and the disc never starts spinning. While the loading issues might just mean I need a belt, the fact that I can't get a disc to play has me really concerned...

Wait, so is the rest position for that big white part supposed to look like that? Mine uh...doesn't. Maybe that's my problem, I did give that section a proper greasing too but it might be out of alignment somehow... This is how mine looks in the rest position, with the tray retracted: https://i.imgur.com/UTH4chh.jpgEDIT: Oh wait, that's with the tray out, my bad. Also my picture is from before I put the clamper back in, but the clamper pin is definitely fitted into the slot on the white part.
