Pls help diagnose a Denon CD player

[pronto21]

Hi,

I am trying to diagnose my Denon UCD F07 CD player which stopped playing CDs. I am thinking I may need a new laser unit but I am not sure.

If I do or not put a CD in the player behaves the same way - seems not knowing the CD is inside. I looked inside and the optics are perfect clean.

When I put a CD in, the drawer closes but the CD does not turn or spin and I do not hear any laser tracking movement. The display shows "LEADING" and that's it.

Are you able to suggest if the faulty laser unit may be the reason?
Thanks

Even though the laser lens may look clean, you may want to clean the lens anyway. You can do this using a qtip and isopropyl alcohol. Be very gentle when doing this though as you may scratch the lens if you apply too much pressure on it.
