This is a 6 CD player. I've had it for a few years. I like it because I
can control it through the amp's remote.

Powers on okay.
Carousel will not rotate and it will not attempt to read a cd.

Before I open it up, does anyone have any ideas on what to look at first?

Problems in the power supply would be the first thing to check for. Possibly
a missing rail ? Motor volts are often a separate regulated supply on
players, and all motors (loading, spindle, sled) are usually fed off the
same rail. You could try manually shifting the laser up its slides a bit,
and then powering on. If laser homes, then probably not a power supply
issue. If it stays where you pushed it to, then it may well be.

Motors usually get gunky after a while too.
Cleaning the motors out might help for a bit,until the commutator glazes
over again. (usually the problem that I run across.)
