Those are millimeters on that ruler. Any ideas where it goes?

Presumably your lab power supply had a higher current capacity than the one in the LD player. Were you able to see the current draw?

Not sure. I can look inside my M90 and see if I can locate a spring like that. Either way, I will reply back w/ some answer. And like Zeta said, good job troubleshooting the motor issue.

Thanks, but it's not "fixed" yet. I tired stopping and starting it a few times and about half the time it will play and the other half it will spin for about 10-20 seconds and then coast to a stop and show STOP on the display.

Presumably your lab power supply had a higher current capacity than the one in the LD player. Were you able to see the current draw? So I gently opened the back of the motor. Lots of corrosion. I think those 3 capacitors you can barely see, leaked. I tried taking off the hub but its on there very sung. Might have to make some kind of puller. I want to replace those caps and see if I can refurnish this thing. Nothing to loose. Lol

rein-o wrote: Wow, you are in uncharted territory. People talk about rebuilding the spindle motor but haven't yet. Keep up the work, I doubt it will work after all the work you do but if you succeed then others can learn from it, I've rebuilt small electric motors. Some were successful. Some not. Any particular reason this shouldn't be successful? This motor's housing has a lip/ridge where the back plate rests. The unsuccessful rebuilds I've done in the past didn't have this. They relied on friction and having the back plate on in just the right spot. The back plate on this was not on very tight. Once I bent back the tiny nicks in the housing that held it on, I put a long thin sacrificial screwdriver into the large hole on the front of the housing and gave the back plate a few light taps on its inner side. Back popped off easily. I've ordered some replacement caps. Should be here in a few days. I was having trouble getting the hub off of the shaft. I really didn't want to damage the fragile plastic hub. Eventually I put the motor on the floor, I placed the inside edges of my feet on the sides of the housing and used fingertips from both hands to pull up on the hub as evenly as possible. It popped off without any issues.

Honestly I have no idea, I've never done this to these types of motors and only know what I've read in the past or when I talked with some techs many, many years ago. Also when the tech were doing this they had access to actual parts and just dropped another one in and forgot about the old one. We don't have those extra parts and only can salvage them from other players with bad issues hopefully not motor issues but other stuff. I too can't see why it wouldn't work and saw you posted in the other topic and that's the furthest I've ever seen anybody doing this. But keep us posted.

tasuke wrote: my "first" LD player was a CLD-1080 that wouldn't spin a disc.
after about 10-odd secs. of power-up, the lens barrel in the pickup would begin audibly and visibly vibrating, and a definite, fishy foul odor began to emanate from somewhere in the chassis.
this was WAY back, -must have been around 2000/2001- so i didn't know the first thing about what might have been going on, let alone how to possibly even begin to approach the problem... My guess is that as the motor is spinning, the stench from the old leaking caps inside the motor gets stirred up and blown out the openings in the motor housing. The spinning of the laserdisc contributes to blow the smell out of the machine.

Keep up the work, I doubt it will work after all the work you do but if you succeed then others can learn from it, Usually the issue with spindles is the bearing. I guess we have to be on the lookout for this too.
