RCD 510 struggling to eject CD's
« on: August 13, 2012, 12:48:22 pm »
Hi all,

My RCD510 is working fine in all aspects apart from when I try and eject a CD.  When i attempt to eject a CD I can hear the drive working away and it seems to make noise for about 20 seconds then comes up saying "Internal CD error."  After about 3 or 4 go's it will eventually eject the CD.  This happens on all 6 cd slots.

Any idea what might be going on?  I'd rather get it looked at now before the problem gets any worse and it refuses to eject CD's completely.

Had similar when I bought my RCD as the seller hadn't put it in transport mode so the unit moved and locked in some CDs. Won't be exactly the same for you of course but could be something inside is a little wonky. Either that or software perhaps. You could try the factory reset - may help? I'm no expert though. My electrical engineer brother and friend took the whole unit apart to work out the problem and realign some bits.

Hope that helps some

Hi mate thanks for the reply.  I'm not electrical engineer so would be too scared to start messing haha! 

Guess I'll have to take it to an audio specialist and let them have a look.
