gotcha.  for the gear, does it just pop out?  Like I can slide it right off right?

If that doesnt work, is there a place I can order a new motor?

Thanks!

[Console Repair/Mod Center / TG16 CD issues. Any help appreciated!]

Hi all!

I have a US TG 16 with the TG16 cd player diskman looking thing that plugs into it.

Problem I have is this.

When I turn it on, I can never get the disk to spin without actually pushing the last to the out edge of the track it sits on to read the disk.
Once I reboot it with the later pushed all the way out, it plays the game fine for hours.  But, if I turn it off, and back on the disk wont spin unless I move the laser

I opened the thing up and greased all the gears and the laser bar is slides on and that gear that people said goes bad actually has all the teeth and very little discoloration and is in what seems to be good strong shape.

Anyone ever see this or know of a way to fix it?

Thanks!
