Hi there I've got a pair of Technics Sl-DZ 1200 CDJs and one of them is skipping on every CD I try and play. It's almost like someone has put their finger on the platter for about a second so it sounds like it's being scratched. I've tried the same CD on the other deck and it works fine. I've swapped the leads over and they all work. I've taken it to 2 separate repair shops both of which say there's nothing wrong with it and it plays perfectly ok in their shop. I even brought my own CD in and they said it played fine, but when I bring it back home and set it up the skipping on every CD I play starts. Any ideas would be appreciated; it's driving me mad!!

- Hi there
thanks for the response; do you happen to know if this is easy to repair?
Since this post I checked the deck and it's only in Turntable mode that the CD sounds like it skipping. Would it still be the motor disc spindle? The guy in the repair shop said it's the laser since i called him and told him it only does it in turntable mode (which they didn't test in this mode!!). ta

i was djing at a night club and there was a little bit of crown and coke spilled on the top of it. i cleaned it off and it worked fine, i thought it was no big deal and then the next night when i started to warm up i noticed that it would play fine but the turntable has a lag on it when you move it like as if the top white part with the three holes in it to lock it when you recive it in shiping was sticking to the bottom part. as if it needed some wd-40. would cilicone spay help??

Hi, I've just bought a used Technics HD81 system and i'm running my tv through it, it worked perfect for around 30 mins and then just threw a wobbley. the system changed to CD on its own and then kept skipping through the cd's, flicking random selection on and off, same with repeat and randomly played songs without me touching anything, the system was then jammed on the CD selection (it wouldn't change to radio aux or tape) but i couldn't open the CD tray, no matter what button i hit it just kept switching the random play on and off- even if i push a buton on the tape deck. Have you any idea whats wrong with it please. Regards Brian

It will spin the circular bed that holds all 5 CDs, then randomly stop to begin a CD, but before it actually starts a track, it stops and again starts spinning the circular bed to repeat this entire process, never to play a track. It doesn't seem to matter which buttons I touch,the player has a mind of its own and eventually after many frustrating minutes will stop and begin playing an entire CD.

My Technics SL-PD8 5-disc player continuously makes a whirring sound and the tray will not open. I had a look inside and it appears to be something wrong with the disc-reading mechanism. Please help!
