Jammed Sony MZ-RH910

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

Greetings!

My Sony Hi-MD MZ-RH910 is jammed and will not open.

I can hear it searching, the screen says "Busy, Wait a Moment" . I have removed the fully charged battery to stop it. I tried fully charging the battery. I also tried to open it when it was plugged into both USB and AC power.

The lid appears to be stuck shut and I don't want to force it. When this happened once before I was able to open the lid once it was plugged into USB power.

I am seaching for a screw driver small enough to take it apart and hope someone has some guidance or perhaps a better suggestion.

Is there a hole where you can insert a paper clip like on lap tops to release the lid?

Thanks so much for your help!!!

Very best wishes,

Michele Moore

Have you tried Skradgee's suggestion (post 2) from this thread http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=17935

Thanks Rich! I tried this but it didn't help.

I suspect that the unit thinks it's still processing as witnessed by the "Busy Wait A Minute" message. I may need to find a way to get it to terminate whatever process it is stuck in.

Is there a link to a service manual pdf where I can find instructions on how to take it apart?

Too bad I can't just stick a paper clip into a hole someplace to get it to release like a lap top CD.

Any other suggestions would be most welcome!

Best wishes,

Try plugging it in to your computer and run Sonic Stage, see if the stop button will work. Or maybe see if you can initialize the disc. POE.

Thanks, I plugged it into Sonic stage... it would not initialize and the stop button

would not work. It is not being recognized by Windows. I keep getting the "Busy,

Wait A Minute" message.

Please help! Can I take it apart! What else can I try?
