I think I heard about this issue on tripletopper's LX-200 but I think we never found the solution @ the end. Anyway, if it's easy to follow, you can trace back where the motor connects and see if it goes back to whatever is powering the motor (usually a transistor of some sort or maybe caps that fall inline w/ the motor).

Yeah, didn't want to mention the topper, but he was the one that comes to mind when testing tray opening with a stopwatch....

laserpaal wrote: What may be the cause when the door hinges and needs a slight friendly push for the tray to complete the loading cycle? I have two Panasonic players (LX-1000u) that exhibit the same problem, but once in a while they close by themself. I went for the service manual but I didn't get any smarter what may be causing this, but can it be the loading belt (VDV022) for the tray that needs replacing? I cannot find a compatible belt in the PDF provided by Kurtis. If the issue is just the door being held up (nothing to really do with the tray movement), this was actually a known issue back in the day when the machine was new. Panasonic found the problem to be the door needing a minor shave down where it basically had some trouble clearing the tray. You should look @ this carefully to see where the hang up occurs, mark off the section, remove the door, and then use maybe a file or sanding device to shave it down (but not too much where it might deface what the door looks like from the front).

Thanks for the idea of a possible fix, interesting to hear that Panasonic found a solution for the known issue. It doesn't bother me that much, but I might give it a try if it gets more stubborn and/or stuck.
