    Here I have for sale a SONY D-1000 Discman in need of repair. I bought it some time ago along with some cassette recorders, as seller was only selling as a pack (was only interested in the cassette recorders).
    PCB had some corrosion (unclear what caused it) which has been cleaned. Some supect solder joints have been re-done.
    Symptoms: laser powers on, it does focus search (lens going up and down), spindle motor sometimes runs slow and does not read ToC.
    It sometimes will read ToC and play a CD, but with skipping.

    I do not have the time to investigate the problem further, so I want to pass it on to someone else.
    Note that spindle is cracked and will need to be replaced, although I do not believe that is the source of the problem.
    No play in the bushings that I can feel with my hand. However note that does not necessarily mean motor is good.

    Cosmetic condition can be seen in pictures below.
