Thanks! It's nice of you to try to help! I'm traveling now, so I haven't had a chance to ruin it yet! But I'll take a look when I get home.

I appreciate the advice! I'll see what I can do!

Thank you. I looked on YouTube before posting here but I didn't see anything relevant. The other link suggests it needs to be taken to someone who can repair it, but there is no such person in my area.

Thanks! Do you think I can replace it on my own? Any guidance you can offer?

Will do! Thanks!

Hi, everyone. For years I kept my MDS-JB940 in my basement, unused. Recently, I decided to put it to work again to enjoy my MiniDiscs. Sadly, for any disc I insert, I receive the message "C13 Read Error" and the deck ejects the disc. I never had any problems with this unit until now, and frankly, it hadn't received a lot of use. It's a pity because it's such a nice device and I didn't enjoy it as often as I should have. I cleaned the lens with hydrogen peroxide and isopropyl alcohol, but that had no effect. Can anyone offer a suggestion about how to fix it? Thanks for reading this. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
