I have a JVC deck in my car. Its about 3 years old? Lately its been getting finicky playing cd's. First it stopped playing cdr's, but 'oem' cd's were fine. Then a week later it was fine. Now this week [colder weather arrives...?] its back to not playing any cds.

When i put a cd in, it just sits there with the track number and never just starts playing the song. Sometimes it starts to play fragments of it, similar to when you are downloading a video on dial up and it takes forever to get it to play all the way through.

What do you think i am looking at here? Is there a maintenance cleaning it might need? OR do you think its shitting the bed on me?

Buy a new cd player, it's not hard. After 3 years, I would think its about time anyway.

 

Cool, thanks.

Its not hard, just dont have $200 laying around, if i did, i would pay my rent

actually ive seen selling them on here for like 70 bucks, used, but still works, or check ebay, you can be lucky there too

 

Ever think about pulling it out and taking it to get looked at?? Might need the laser to be realigned which doesn't cost a lot.

 

Yea, that is probably my next step. Thats why i posted, to see if it is a common maintenance issue, thanks.

How much does a laser realign go for?
