It is located at the rear left of the player (where the laser movement mechanisms are located) when looking from the front, and is seen in between the black plastic. Visually look for the metal guide rail (shaft). That was an indicator of a "location problem".ĭetail: Remove the cover. I had observed that CDs always started skipping between 4.18 and 4:54 minutes. Amazing that something that simple solved the skipping problem. Such a simple fix: remove the cover, dab a small amount of oil on the rail. I applied gun oil (a thin oil that says it has silicone in it) with a Q-tip to the single metal laser guide rail. Sony CDP-CX300 skipping - terrible skipping problem solved tell him you want a maintance/service just like you would take your car in for a Lube, Oil, and Filter service Your Sony may still have plenty of life left in it. then the tech will just about automatically tell you that the laser assy/drive needs to be replaced (he makes more $$$ replacing drives then cleaning them and he's just about assured that when he replaces the drive with a new one that the skipping will go away. If you tell the tech that the player is skipping. take it to a repair shop and tell them that you want them to clean and adjust the laser and be sure to " LUBRICATE THE GUIDE RAILS".
If you don't want to fiddle with the unit. just remove top cover to see if you can see the guide rails and clean them thoroughly before re-Lubricating This sympton is very common with older Cd players that get heavy use. and the player plays fine until you hit the next patch/spot of dried up lubricant
the laser will regain lock with the data stream. once past the spot where the dried up Lubricant is stuck to the rail. losing lock with the CDs Datastream and skips. When the laser sled comes in contact with the dried up lubircant patch on the guide rails. Sometimes CD players will skip when the factory lubricant on the guide rails that the laser rides on dries up. There may be some hope for your Sony yet.
