CD repair recommendation

Anyone recommend a technician in the Midland, Yorshire or Humberside with experience of classic Philips CD players and the CDM-1 mechanicals, motors etc?

I think there might be a problem with the sled motor not producing enough torque to open the drawer. New belts have not fixed the issue and I would like someone with more experience then me to look at it. DGP

PS reads and plays CDs with no problems
 
Which machine is it? Is it a belt and rack/pinion system?

Monitoring the voltage delivered to the motor should eliminate the electronics/loom side of things.

Pop it round if youre not far away and we can take a peek.
 
Clean and lube the sled rails and cogs before looking at the electrics. If its not belt or lube its most likely worn gear teeth binding under torque.

That’s all been done. Belts only. Closes beautifully under power but has to be dragged open.
