I thought it would be an easy fix, but it turns out to be very hard to find replacement belts. It was, in fact, loose, practically falling off of its wheels. When the DVD tray again started having trouble, I took a more serious look inside, and discovered the belt I’d missed earlier. Which may have been the case, but if so it was the belt that I couldn’t see. After taking it apart and putting it together, it started working again, so I thought perhaps something loose, perhaps the ribbon cable, had been tightened in the process. The symptoms clearly seemed to indicate a bad belt, but there was no belt. I took a look inside, but there didn’t seem to be anything wrong. Soon after, the tray started having trouble opening as well, but it was still workable all it needed was a little help with my fingernail. It needed a little help pushing in before the DVD would load.
Last year, however, the tray started having trouble closing. It worked great with my old Sony home theater system, and still plays great today over a new Marantz. In October of 2007 I replaced my 7-year-old Pioneer DVD player-I don’t remember what model, or what was wrong with it-with an OPPO DV-980H, which I’ve really liked. Notice that the tray is half open to see it. This is the belt you need to get to if the tray isn’t opening and closing.
