MECH Error Evidently a CD is jamming the mechanism. Sending it to the shop would cost more than it?s worth. Can I fix it? Can someone recommend a place to buy a repair manual? It seems like a waste just to trash it. Thanks

I am getting a MECH error where Disc 2 seems to be jammed. I removed the side panels and sprayed compressed air, and I still can't get any response from the stereo. Are there any other suggested solutions?

When I turn on my camera I get the error message 0x0311how do i fix this?

0x0311 error is evidently a lens error.

A lens error can be caused by physical damage to the mechanism that controls the lens, or debris that is interfering with the operation of the lens.

This article may be able to help you with a "do it yourself" solution.
http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/12/fixing-lens-error-on-digital-camera.html

In the event that your problem is due to physical damage and not just dirt or debris, you will need to take it to a local camera repair shop for troubleshooting-- though with most consumer digital cameras, labor and parts cost of a repair can easily exceed the value of the camera.

The lens is jammed. Usually dust or grit gets in the mechanism and causes it to stick. Could try blowing down the side of the lens but it will probably need taking apart and cleaning. It is not an easy job to do but it might be worth trying as it would probably cost too much taking to a repair shop.

I can't get my CD Player to open

The cd mechanism is very hard to get to in this model but sometimes through the bottom panel
(if one)! Maybe some gears can be seen to turn
in mech. These systems are usually not worth fixing
but you can "luck out"!

Disc wont change....or play....

e-mecha appears to be nothing more than an interlock. hitting reset clears the interlock, but if the problem has not been fixed, then the interlock will trip again, preventing operation. Determine why the radio goes into mechanical failure to begin with. Once fixed, the interlocks will be made and the radio will play. There are a number of events that all have to complete sucessfully including feedback from sensors to maintain the e-mecha interlock. One of your sensors is not being made, either by a sensor problem or by a mechanical issue that prevents the sensor from tripping. -Steve
