Theta Data Basic Transport Won't Read Disc

Hi All,

I have a hand-me-down system including a Theta DS Pro basic III and a Theta Data Basic Transport. When I insert a CD, it says "Disc" and won't play.

Any simple home remedies, or should I take it in for servicing?

Thanks

Thank you all, I will try the power switch/cord remedy, and if that doesn't work I will likely sell it for parts. Should I do so on the Audiogon site?

Hyoster - sure, place an ad. I was recenty LOOKING for one through "Wanted" section, and got one for $150 from a fellow Agoner.

Hi All,
I also have a same CD Transport and found out the gear driving the CD door open/close is broken. See the picture linked below. Please let me know if anyone know where I can buy a new gear. It would be a great help.
Thanks

Mike
