Uh, I think you already have a solution but the following may help someone else.
Ensure that the device is powered on.
Press the "Function" button (28/58) to set the unit to CD mode.
Press the "Open/Close" button (19/48) to open the CD drawer.
Insert a CD into the tray with the label side facing up.
Press the "Open/Close" button again to close the CD drawer.
If the above steps don't work, you can try the following:
Unplug the device from the power outlet.
Wait for a few minutes.
Plug the device back in.
Press the "Open/Close" button to see if the CD drawer opens.
If the drawer still doesn't open, there might be a mechanical issue with the device. Look for the Fixya advise referred to above. If if that doesn't work, in that case, it's best to contact Crosley's customer support for further assistance.
Turn the arm that holds the element and needle careful to the far right and the turntable will spin. This is a safety feature for protecting the needle.
This is an internal circuit switching failure that requires a Crosley servicer to repair. You may have difficulty finding one because Crosley is just a brand name attached to equipment manufactured offshore.
It sounds like the belt driving the unit might be out of place or connected wrong. It could be the belt is slipping caused by wear and thus needs replacing.
Check The line in switch in the back. If not using the auxiliary input, make sure the line-in switch, located on the back of the system near the auxiliary cable, is in the off position.
Mismatch speeds on older turntables is normally due to either 1) a kink in the speed switch mechanism or 2) a hardening and slipping of the rubber drive wheel.
A very small motor with a chamfered shaft drives the rubber drive wheel, and the wheel is moved by the speed control up and down the drive shaft to produce various rpm speeds.
In your case, it's likely turning at 45rpm because it isn't settling onto the 33rpm part of the shaft.
Piddle with the speed control, then count the speed (number of turns in a minute) You'll figure it out!
Hello Tom, you would have to measure if the engine gets power, also control the key that drives the engine when it starts
Check if you can move the motor shaft with your hand, to confirm that it is not locked
Good luck with the checks

Hola Tom, tendrias que medir si le llega alimentacion al motor, tambien controlar la llave que acciona al motor cuando arranca
Fijate si puedes mover el eje del motor con la mano, para corroborar que no esta trabado
Suerte con los chequeos
Saludos Franco Dosil
