everything in my favour is working against me

just looked at the one he took out under a magnifying glass - now with the laser pointing downwards and looking at the ribbon cable (one side comes down straight - the other side 'bells' out at the bottom end about an extra 3/8") - now the 1st track (straight side) comes all the way down except for the last 1/2" - whether he has damaged it removing it or it has blown I do not know - I will have to have a look and see if the new one he has fitted is the same tomorrow - I hope this makes sense to someone out there

Hi,take alook at the page laser maintenance on the lampisator website.

Hi again just looked at the old laser I removed and the first track ends like you say doesnt go to a connection.

Can you post some images of inside the player around the socket of the ribbon cable

just looked there and came up with this
The end of lampizator service announcement: as of end of june 2010 the lampizator service does not accept new enquiries. all our resources will be allocated to lampizator dac production. therefore it is a difficult strategic decision to remove the other services like repairs, lampization of cd players, and music angel reworks.

The importance and significance of the dac is such that i have no choice.
