how to fix a CD player
I bought an Onkyo CD player from my once favorite source (I start to suspect they auction stuff out from electronic recycling.)
It's playing for a few minutes and then stops. I can't go to the next track, the display in the front is dim. I was wondering if its' easy to fix (easy steps to try), there is a repair kit on ebay for $15.
It's probably 10 years old, otherwise in good shape. (I thought I could sell my current CD player, keep this one, and cash $80 or so for an upgrade for another component.
Or is it best not to waste my time and ditch this thing? It's C-7030, reviews are mixed, when it comes to reliability, not so kind.
Thanks your for your insight

available new for $250. walmart. this is an opportunity to learn for yourself what they are about, diddle around inside, see what you can fix yourself. unplug, take the case off, plug it in. watch it motors, gears, sliding tracks, rubber bands laser mechanism moves the laser from inner area of the disc, out toward the front, outer part of the disc. drawer opens/closes mechanism spins disc ................................................ alcohol, q tips, small painter's brush, can of compressed air, small tube of lithium grease have at it!
