I once had a unit do the same thing. The rails that the drawer rides on had gotten out of alignment (this was during shipment--so it may be unlikely in your case). I opened the unit, losened the rails and manually opened and closed the drawer to align the rails. Once they were aligned I tighened them down part way--open and closed the drawer via remote and then finished tightening down the rails. It sounds simple, but in actuality it took me about 3 times to get it right. Once I got it right the drawer worked very well. Also, I would recommend a teflon based grease--it typically will not wear off. However, if the unit uses delron as the bearing material, no grease can frequently be better than any grease.
My CD drawer won't open please help ?
I have an intermitten problem w/my transport's drawer it won't open, from the remote nor the unit. I opened it up and every thing looks OK, but what do I know. I slabbed some grease on the rails and it opened again now it won't work :-( I even tried the old fashioned giving it a whack still the same problem. Of course I am leery about getting ripped off by techs with their inflated repair bills. Anyone experinced the same thing before? please share your thoughts and ideas
Thank you
