    TV/DVD Combined Generic Question

    Hi

    I have come across quite a few and I suppose alot of you have come across 00's.

    My question is about those delicate/temperamental DVD players that wont read discs, the motor for the DVD/CD sounds like it struggles to get to speed

    I have read a couple of other forums and tried

    a: Altering the DVD pot on the laser
    b: Getting a voltage supply and connecting it to the motor and spinning it both ways for a few minutes(I have had mixed results with this method)

    Apart from buying a second hand one off flebay (that will probably pack up in 2 weeks) Is there a more permanent fix for these things??

    Cheers

      A lot of these DVD drives fail due to defective motors. I do not know why, but a lot are appearing recently, so it must be a big problem. Drives may be marked as used but they may have been harvested from shipping damaged TVs?

          They are in a word "crap" nearly everyone you see nowdays it has remarks like "DVD player struggles to read discs" etc etc, changing just the motor would be a nightmare, then you have to get the right one at the right price.

          The 22inch are getting more problematic, screen issues, mains, inverters and now more and more DVD faults, yet more "Turkish Delight",,,looks great from the outside, tastes like crap when you bite into it

              Ah, Vestel. 'tis a Joy and a Pleasure to work on one.

              Who am I kidding. The day that company goes bankrupt will be a celebration for me; however, I see that as being unlikely, especially given the likes of Toshiba and Sharp have started re-badging their rubbish TVs.

                  I found a supplier yesterday in Poland that sells new motors for £1.75per piece have ordered 5 to see if they work, it is an easy job to replace them too.

                  Will report back if they are any good with postage/time and more importantly if they work

                      In other news Turkey is experiencing a little internal instability so perhaps Vestel will have to temporarily stop production. One can hope.

                          Nescafe Aeroccino, still fails with new Motor (red flashes only once)
                          by juergenb
                          Hi,

                          i am asking for some Help.
                          I have one of these Nescafe Aeroccino (Milk Frother) things with a bad motor.
                          The Motor didn´t start anymore and internet is full of users just swapping the motor for a Mabuchi RF-500TB-12560.
                          So i got a few of these from Banggood.

                          I swapped the motor and now i have a new fault condition.

                          In a working Frother you would press the start button, it will light red and work for a few minutes.
                          If you press longer it will light blue and just mixup the milk.

                          With the new Motor it just starts...

                          by sbt123
                          hi there,im having a look at repairing a wood lathe for my dad,(charnwood w821)the problem is when turning up the variable speed control,the motor starts to stop and start by itself,if i continue to turn up the speed it will trip the mcb in the consumer unit,there is also a slight smell of burning from the speed controll box.,Another strange symptom is the lathe can be unplugged from the mains after switching it off and the motor will spin a couple of times by itself,so far ive put a new speed controll potentiometer on and new motor brushes,ive also tested the motor windings and everything looks...

                          Motor run capacitor physical size vs voltage rating & measurements?
                          by Per Hansson
                          (TL;DR skip the first paragraph)
                          I encountered my first dead motor run capacitor at a customer this week.
                          For some fields I guess it is a very common occurrence but the usual way for industrial machines here is to use 3-phase motors.
                          (Unless a servo motor makes more sense that is).
                          But for some reason this 3-phase machine uses a 1-phase motor for its liquid coolant pump.
                          The pump would run but sometimes trip the 10A breaker.
                          I monitored it starting and stopping for over an hour until it finally stopped in a specific spot between its windings:
                          Then it could...

                          Help identify this motor
                          by mikey5791
                          Hi all forum members,
                          Found this unknown motor discarded in a junk yard and took home for learning experience. By the look of it, I suspect it is taken out from a type of air blower probably running on ac power. I used digital multimeter on ohm/resistance scale and it doesn't read anything on those 2 black wires. So, this motor is not shorted and should be good to run.

                          Correct me if i am wrong on the initial test.
                          Can anyone kindly advice on how to test run this motor based on visible external two black wires. Fyi, i don't see any marking on the motor body nor smell anything...

                          A motor controller is a power supply, right?
                          by cjard
                          Hoping someone here will be able to provide a few pointers with this. I've got a motor controller board for a device that moves a caravan. A DC motor on each wheel is supplied with 12v DC or -12V DC depending on whether the remote control is pushed in "forward" or "backward" mode. The control is arranged by having 2 relays per motor that, at rest, are all connected to the negative.. If the motor is to go forwards, then relay 1 activates meaning the motor sees "positive negative" on its terminals 1 and 2. If the motor is to go backwards then relay 2 activates meaning...
