Hi,

I have a philips AK601 CD player which will not open its drawer.
Before this the drawer would close immediately after opening, don't
know if this is part of the problem.

I found out that the motor which opens the door gets +5 volts
initially to close the door. After that it keeps getting +5 volts.
When I push the open/close button on the frontpanel the voltage drops
to about +2 volts. I think it should be a negative voltage to let the
motor run the other way to open the drawer.

What could be wrong?

Eelco.
