Magnavox FD 204 CD Player

Hi. My name is Mark. I have been signed up for this site for a while, but have never posted. I found one of these old, 20 Pound CD Players tonight in my local Thrift Store. It works great, but the drawer stops just a little short of closing completely. I have to push it in about 3/8's of an inch to get it to close. It sounds like it continues to run like it is trying to close, and will just open up again without my assistance. I guess it could be an old drive belt. The belt looks fine to me. But it could be worn, and stretched. I have never replaced a CD Player belt. Any ideas? Anybody know the belt size? Or I guess it could be the motor. Any insight is appreciated.

Hi,

I used to have the philips 104, 204 and 304. They all had similar problem. I have a friend who changed the belts on these players for me and sometimes he had to do more than once to fix the problems. You need to open it up and get a belt a bit smaller. If you still have problems, please use my nick to email me and I will try to get the exact size for you.
