Got this awhile back and unfortunately the tray was messed up and wouldn't even go in and out properly. Finally got around to taking it apart again and following convoluted instructions from a Sony confidential repair document to re align the gears and pulleys and such, also replaced a belt for good measure.

Of course now it works but I think the laser mechanism rails need new grease because it's still skipping after a good clean, but it's skipping around at certain times so it may be getting stuck. Ordered some white lithium grease for it but it at least plays cds now.

I was looking for one of these old stereos with the cool visualizations, I remember them being so bad ass in the 2000s but I never had one

I had this exact stereo when I was a kid! Awesome!

I had an Aiwa copy of that. At the end, only the CD player and tray were working.
