Beorgram cd 7000 problem

C2103 was changed? Looks pretty old and original to me. I changed mine to a blue Philips type 47uf/40V.

Yes all capacitors have been changed.
The red cap - you mean the polyester cap? It's not polarised so it doesn't matter how you put it in. Can we see the back of the board also?

I don't understand the part about: "The player started OK but when I moved it to the amp it did not read the cd anymore." Do you mean that it played okay on your work desk when it was assembled? You then physically moved the unit, hooked it up to the amplifier, and then it didn't work?

My Beogram cd 7000 still doesn’t read cds after recapping the servo board. I am inclined to replace the laser unit but have the following question. The player is fitted with a cdm-4/56 but I can source a second hand cdm-4/19 which frame seems different. Will I have to exchange the laser itself leaving the original frame and is it easily done?
Hi,

It is very unlikely the CDM itself is faulty. I’ve yet to find a bad CDM4. And I’ve come across quite a few.

Have you checked the voltages as per service manual?

Since you now have the correct caps everywhere, the fault must be around the power supply.

First things first. 99% of alle disk reading problems are caused by a faulty belt. In that case the CD tray is not placed in the exact position. Before recapping anything, change the belt for a new one and make sure the tray is placed correctly.
