Hello people.

I have here an Aiwa NSX-V700 CD Player/Stereo - it was bought in 1997 or so.
No
repair has ever been done (just a bit of lens cleaning).

Today started a problem:

- Sometimes I can't play CD's. The CD tries to spin but it spins a little
(making "click, click" sound) then stops. Looks like something that does not
have enough "oomph!" to go - sometimes it manages to read the directory. If I
turn off the unit then turn it on again, the CD will play.

I am new to repair of CD Player.

What can be the cause of this problem?
I suspect a motor, but I have not open the unit yet.

My parents have an Aiwa CD/AM/FM/Shortwave/Cassette mini system. The CD
player exhibited the same symptoms that you're describing. When I
couldn't easily troubleshoot the problem from the topside, I
disassembled the unit's case to get to the bottom of the CD drive. What
I found was tiny wisps of smoke emanating from the units AC power supply
transformer whenever the CD transport was engaged!

I disconnected the power to the CD drive mechanism. After ensuring that
the transformer no longer produced smoke while using the tuner or
cassette decks, I reassembled the case and considered the CD drive a
loss. That was five years ago and the rest of the system is doing fine
(although it's use has been significantly reduced due to the purchase of
a Bose Wave Radio/CD to replace the lost CD in the Aiwa).

I'm not saying that you have a similar problem. I'm just relating a
problem that I had with our Aiwa unit.
