Nope. It won't fire the display because the initialization routine failed.

My fealing is that whatever controles the display is also controling the
turn
on signal to the power supply. Until it gets that signal the entire
machine
is
DEAD. Burt like ive said earlier, if Anyone has the Power supply Voltages
Please Post them. or better yet if you have the schematic diag.
please post that.
The giant carousel should be trying to move Home from whereever
it is. there is NO attempt to move the motors at all. Nada,Zip,Nuttin.

You need to fix the motor drive problem. Might be impossible without the
service manual however. The presence / non-presence of motor B+, whether
it's 7, 10, 12 volts or whatever, and the drive signal from some
incredibly
complex IC.
Could be a mechanical hang-up in the feed motor - it's usually replaced
as
a
complete ass'y with the pickup.
Try manually moving the pickup to it's "home" inside position and see if
the
power stays on.

No..Actually the Flourescent display is Dark and not lighting up.
Ive done some digging, there is the 5 volt running throught things
and i have high frequency at the crystal next to the micro.
i can get the LED to go green for about 3 seconds if i press on the
eject
button,
but the motors do not attempt to turn at all.
I looked real closly at the display in the dark and hit the eject
button
and i see the filliments light up very silghtly for the 3 seconds.
Also saw some segments of the display trying to light up.

This thing has those surface mount electrolytics on it, so
I am going to replace them and see what happens.

Does anyone have a schematic on this they can post?

B.T.W.---How come i never see anybody posting schematics or software
in
here?

Almost Compleatly Dead, No display of any sort.
little red light goes to green for a few seconds, then goes back to
red.

Model in particular is DVP-CX860
but also happening in DVP-C650D



Does the word STANDBY flash on the front florescent display on the
player?

Try pressing the PLAY button on the front of the player. - Reinhart
