Hi

i wondered if anyone has ever had this problem with their sega mega drive
mega cd player as I dont know what is the matter with it?

It works fine when you put the cd in the player but here begin the
problem...frontal light turns on and begins to
flick....and disc tray makes a noise like....tac,tac,tac.....and finally
appears a message saying "press reset button to open disc".....It canīt read
any cd ( music and games)

I would be greatful for any advice

Thanks for your help

Phil

With it actually making noise, it almost sounds like the lens has an issue...

You could always try a lens cleaner, just to see how that works out. Past that,
I don't know...

also check and make sure there's no dust on the CD, Sega CD isn't
really friendly playing game discs who's bottoms are shinny clean.

Listen very closely and you should be able to hear the disc spinning.
If you can't, then it may be the motor is dead.
