My CD drawer won't open please help ?



I have an intermitten problem w/my transport's drawer it won't open, from the remote nor the unit. I opened it up and every thing looks OK, but what do I know. I slabbed some grease on the rails and it opened again now it won't work :-( I even tried the old fashioned giving it a whack still the same problem. Of course I am leery about getting ripped off by techs with their inflated repair bills. Anyone experinced the same thing before? please share your thoughts and ideas
Thank you

My denon has a belt and it gets loose. I have to get a new belt and then all is fine. Chris

I fixed a similar problem by cleaning the drive belt with a non-slip fluid for rubber parts, like belts and idler wheels, purchased at Radio Shack (isopropyl might work if you find the stuff's unavailable). The faulty player used a rubber belt to drive the gears for the drawer mechanism, and it was slipping due to contamination or age. Solvent cleaning restored its grip. I hope your problem is that easily remedied. Good luck.

Could just be slipping belt or loose spindle pulley(loose grub screw)that holds tension.
