Sharp XL-MP130 CD Shelf System - Page 7 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

you need to connect the sound via the scart lead plug ,on the polug if you connect the sound to pins 2 and 6 for the channels and 4 is the earth or dround but check it out with a scart diagram as i cannot remember correctly and i just looked for my chart and cannot find it as its been a long time since i was involved in setting up satalite/video/TV euroconector cables .

HelloIf it does not play the cleaner disc, just inspect whether the disc inserted in spins inside it. You can check this by open the upper cover of the player, and inserting a disc into it. If inserted disc spins inside, and the player won't read it, the fault is with its laser pickup unit, and it should be replaced with same type and number.If the disc dos not spins, the fault is with the sled motor [the motor that spins the inserted disc], has damaged, and should be replaced. OK.

HelloIf the CD player do not read any discs, the laser pickup unit is faulty. There is no repair with this unit, only replacement can be done. The cost of this unit will cost around $5 to $8. OK.

sounds like a codec issue.... what format are you burning to disc? are you able to connect your system to your computer? id try different formats on burning discs first. ive had this problem with other cd players and funny thiong is i have a really old denon cd player that that is bout my age or a lil older and im 31 that will play burned discs but yet alot of newer players wont and its all bout codecs and copyright protection these days so hopefully this will help you.... also try different brand of blank discs.

Hi!

First thing to do is to check if the remote really don't work. Here's a very simple way to do that: If you have a digital camera or a mobile phone with a camera, start the camera and point the remote control to the lens. Push a button on the remote and look on the screen of the camera/mobile phone. If the remote control works, the camera will be able to show the IR beam on it's screen.

If no light beam is coming from the remote control, it will be very easy to make it working again. Please remove battery, open the case of the remote by unscrew (if present) any screw, and, using a plastic card open carefully the case. Now please take every part and simply wash it with dish washing liquid or liquid soap and warm water. Now, be sure everything is very good dryied, best with a hair dryer, put all parts carefully togheter and ...that's it.

Please let me know if it helped.

Good luck!

Try "RRMCG0145AFSA remote" in a search engine. Many hits. Look on eBay, too.

It requires a remote for most things.

This manual for the CD-SW300 is pretty close to the 330. http://files.sharpusa.com/Downloads/ForHome/HomeEntertainment/Audio/Manuals/aud_man_CDSW300.pdf

A simple search engine query for "sharp cd-sw-330 remote" would find lots of them.

The actual model of the remote is RRMCGA117

Hope it helped..

Read this procedure to possibly fix the remote:
http://remotes.com/remotes/servlet/rs?a=Display&contents=help_deadremote&uuid=A12963989782821

They also sell replacement remotes.

Zoom in on the picture of the original remote provided on the site (or look at your own) and get the actual remote model number.

or check eBay: search for "(model of the device or the remote) remotes", check the 'include description' box. Usually cheaper than the vendors.

Hi nsi_79,

Since you have already mentioned that the lens is clean and the discs are in good condition I will go on and discuss the three possible causes of this skipping problem. The first one is weak laser diode, they don't last forever. The second one is, bad or weak carriage motor. This is the motor that moves the laser pickup across the disc. The last one is the pickup assembly which is out of alignment. These will require an authorized repairman to fix the issue.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

Hi janicejam572,

The most likely cause is a blown output IC, particularly if there is a short delay between coming out of standby, and the message appearing. "PROTECTION" or "PROTECTED" on audio amplifiers usually indicates that the output relay is deactivated, to either protect the output stages from an excess load - a shorted speaker or cable for instance - or to protect the speakers from DC, which would otherwise be appearing at the output connectors from a blown output transistor in the output chip. Sometimes, the protect circuitry itself fails, and sometimes it monitors supply rails as well. In this case, something as simple as a fuse ( although it may not look like any fuse you would recognize ) can cause the message to appear. Most likely it is the output IC.It can be fixed only by service technician.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

Please help as I have this problem too and can't see how to get into it to change the belt

Generally speaking, an amp attempts to protect itself from heat, shorts, overloads and operator exuberance by refusing to turn on or stay on.

Overloads can be from excessive periods of high output or marginally low impedance loading by the speakers; and shorts would be wiring issues or a speaker blowing up.

You should be able to feel if it's hot. WHY is it overheating? Make sure it has sufficient ventilation on all sides and that vent holes are not blocked by dust balls. Ensure the fan (if equipped) is running as designed (some only operate on demand). Clean dust and debris from it.

If the amp comes back on after cooling, you're lucky. They only have so many self-protection cycles in their lives so continuously resetting or cycling their power without addressing the cause can do more harm than good.

If it protects immediately on a cool power up you should disconnect the speaker connections and try it 'naked'. If it comes up then diagnose which lead(s) are shorted. If it does not come up the problem is internal and should be left to an experienced and competent hands-on tech.

THE CLOSEST MATCH TO YOUR PROBLEM IS A SERVICE MANUAL, YOU MIGHT GET SOME OPERATING TIPS BUT ITS NOT A FREE DOWNLOAD. TRY (SERVICEMANUALS.NET).

Are you referring to whether 8 ohm speakers will work on a 4 ohm impedence amp? The answer is "yes", but with some amps (which are more sensitive than others) there will be a slight mismatch and some distortion but the distortion will be barely noticable. On most consumer goods there is a wide tolerance. I have seen units marked "4 to 16 ohms".

Go figure.
