Question about Yamaha GX-505 CD Shelf System

Cd tray stuck closed

I have 3 cds stuck in the tray of my Yamaha GX-505 and when I select play, I get a "mechanical er" message. How do I get the cds out without destroying my stereo?

Anonymous Apr 01, 2009

I have the same problem. My Yamaha GX-707 CD tray hit the side of the cabinet and the tray was unable to come all the way out. I pushed it back in thinking it would be the same as a DC on a computer. Now, I cant open it or utilize the open button.

If you are not a tech expert, i would suggest that you bring the unit to service center ahd have them remove the CDs themselves. you have to remove some screws in the mechanism of the changer and you may acidentaly damage the lense. Just be careful when you carry and transport the unit not to tilt on either side. you have to keep it up straight always to prevent the CD falling out of the tray.

Tray for cd won't open and it says "mechaical error." Unlike in the past there seems to be nothing stuck or askew inside. I left unit on overnight and tray was apparently open because I saw it...

you need to open the cover of your component and have access to the mechanical system of the CD. The timing gears might got dislocated and you need to manually adjust them.check also if there are belts that are broken replace them.

Wild guess of possibilities.

1. Internal backup battery exhausted.

2. Button OR key is stuck down, either mechanically or electrically.

Looks like your wife damaged the tray. I should have a look, it might be something you can fix with a bit of superglue. It's worth a try!

"Disk is unreadable"

Since CDs and CD-R's work fine, its probably that the disc tray of your xbox 360 is not working. you might wanna try contacting xbox customer support to check the warranty status of your console. might as well send it in for repairs

Play Recordable CDs Containing MP3/WMA Audio Files
To play recordable CDs containing MP3 and/or WMA audio files:

Press the eject button on the Xbox 360 console (or select Open Tray from any area of the Xbox Dashboard) to open the disc tray.

Place a data CD-R or CD-RW containing MP3 and/or WMA media on the disc tray with the label facing up (to the right if the console is vertical).

Press the eject button (or select Close Tray from any area of the Xbox Dashboard) to close the disc tray.
Go to the Media area of the Xbox Dashboard. Select Music, Current Disc.
To play all tracks on the CD, select either Play All or Add to Current Playlist.

If you have an existing playlist open, Add to Current Playlist will append all tracks on your current CD to that playlist. Selecting Play All will clear a current playlist and create a new one consisting of all the files on the current CD. (Be sure to save your playlist, if desired, prior to selecting the Play All option.) Files are added to a playlist in alphabetical order by file name. Playlists start again from the beginning once the final track has played.
