I bought a non-working Pioneer CLD-V2600 on eBay. I found this part loose in the machine. If doesn't appear to be broken. Can someone tell me where it goes?
It also arrived with the laser sled unsecured which I think broke the plastic shield covering the focus mechanism. Luckily, the mechanism seems undamaged. I think this was done because the tray would not close. This appears to be due to the toothed bar of the sled getting stuck under the large black gear in the front as the sled rises up. This in turn seems to not line up with a small gap in the teeth, meaning the previous owner probably jumped the teeth pushing the tray in.
It looks like the gear lock from the dual side play mechanism from a CLD-2950 (completely different model) to yours.... The 2600, 1750, 1600 and 600 all share the same hardware and I've never seen that plastic part there before...Anywhere!
