[BC] Numark MP 102 CD player

[jon]

We've had several of these pieces of junk with that problem in the past.
Also had the tray mechanism go out.

Nothing but problems, those Numark 102s.

But, the station insists on buying those 'cause they are inexpensive. My
response is the usual: you get what you pay for. They've spent more money
replacing those Numarks than if they had purchased a good unit in the
first place. Sigh.

At another client we have some Sony units that are standing up well, even
in a college radio environment. Spendy, but worth it.

Anyway, turn it on and the entire display illuminates, but it doesn't go any further than that....just sits there, all lit up.   Anybody else had this?  Anybody have a schematic?
