It may be the laser is sticking and when you put it in the position you
cite as working that gravity is providing just enough "Assist" to get it
unstuck... This could be due to old lubrication on the slide.
However, I assure you the above is 100% speculation (My best guess) and
may well be nothing more
Just remember, My advice is worth exactlly what you paid for it :-) and
your money has already been refunded

It's probably the micro switch not detecting the MiniDisc:

Hello,
I've bought a goodlooking second-hand mds-501. The minidisk has one
problem. When starting for the first time the unit won't accept the
disc. The disc starts turning but the laserunit does not move.
I've to place it vertical on the side of the powerbutton. When he
recognices it I can place it horizontal again. After playing or
recording the first minidisk the problem seems to be over. I can play
or record for hours without a problem but the next day the problem is
back.
Problems with a switch?? Heath problem. (when the unit is warm after a
while it works perfectly )
Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance. Yde
Thanks for your reply. But the minidisc is detected. The disc starts
spinning but the laser doesn't move a litlle, what he does when
succeeding reading the TOC.
Only when the machine is cold he refuges to read the disc. Later on it
works perfectly.
I've treated the switch beside the laserunit with kontaktspray. I've
cleaned the laser. But nothing works. The only thing I can think of is
that the laser has not got the right temperature at the start.
More suggestions?
Thanks

Just to be clear. Is this a 510 (MDS-JE510) or a 501 (which I haven't
heard of)?

Hello,
I cleaned the microswitches and treated them with kontaktspray.
But still the minidisc has the same problem. After 10 minutes everything is
normal. Has anybody any other solutions?? After 10 minutes it works
perfectly.Why not in the beginning??
Speed of the spindlemotor??
He accepts some discs better than other ones,
Thanks in advance
