I haven't found a source for just the spindle motor in these. You can
try and call MAT electronics for help though. They may want to get a
hold of a bad motor so they can try and source it if they get enough
requests for it, like the Sony DVP425ns spindle motor.

I have to recommend that electronics not be thrown away EVER.
Electronic devices need to be properly recycled, and not the so called
recycyling going on where it just gets shipped off to China or India
for open air burning!!!

These links might help on finding a recycler:

I have seem mabuchi spindle motors in some of my parts catalogs.
But this motor does not have a mabuchi part number on it and
has a hall speed sensor on the top. Its not directly shorted,
but it does seem to draw too much current went i feed it 3 to 6
volts DC from my bench DC supply. And then i have to kick start
it to get it to run. I will try to take it apart. But its probably 50/50
whether it will run properly or not be damaged in the process.
Its a customers unit and not my personal unit. A new sled is $100+.
If i could get a motor for 10/25, it might be a doable fix.
This is a solid unit and NOT one of the Chinese pieces of crapola.
