6. Sensor testing

These 7 electrical parts could cause transport problems but so can a broken
mechanical part. Test all 5 sensors and 2 motors as a group once the tray is
removed. If the parts test OK, the problem is mechanical or a ribbon cable is bad.

Testing the Tray Loading Motor and Related Sensors

With the tray removed (section 4), install the front panel to test the tray loading
operation. Plug in front panel ribbon cables CN2008 and CN2009.

Do / Watch
After laser focus searches ("INIT"), the
loading motor turns to drive the
transport to the non-clamped position
("WAIT"). The unit will then shut down
("H01 error").
Measure the resistance between
CN2011 / pin 1 and pin 2.
Rotate the main gear to the position
shown in figure 4 inset so that you can
see the sensor in the cutout. Rocking
the gear changes Q9001's logic state.

The voltage at CN2011/pin 6
will change from 0.1Vdc to
4.6Vdc as you rotate the main
gear to block Q9001's light.
