TurboGrafx 16 CD Combo Problem (need help!)
« on: February 05, 2016, 03:28:58 AM »
i was wondering if someone could help me with a problem i have with my turbo cd combo. The CD part seems to be broken, the CD part once it has power does not stop spinning a disc (even when the tray is open it still spins till the cd flys out of it) And there is no light on the LED display. I have tried the docking station and stand alone same results. (no its not the gears )

Also i have a turbo duo with sound issues (plays sound effects no music)
(Apparently all caps as been replaced already )

Are you using the correct AC adapter for the CD part?

I believe besides the gears these also have issues with caps so you may want to check those to make sure they are not leaking.

Does this happen even without hitting any buttons on the CD drive?

If so you should get a hold of thesteve to look at your CD drive. Sounds like a motherboard bad chip or trace issue of some sort to me.

A bad lens wouldn't make the disc continue to spin after the drive has been opened.
