Sony LDP-1000A Service Manual WANTED

[doogie812]

My old Sony Laserdisk player is getting a little tired. If it does lock in it will play an entire side of a disk with no problems. Even old MCA Discovision disks. However, after warming up the spindle servo just hunts.

I don't even know the theory of operation on this thing. Does it focus lock before attempting to spin up like Pioneer?

If anyone has a service manual for this thing I would like to purchase or rent it. Maybe scan and email selected pages.

The guy selling one on eBay was a bust. Oh I only have the Operations Manual.

If you have any experience with this thing drop me a line. I have fixed 100's of things in my 40+ years as a technician without a schematic. I just need somewhere to start.

Thanks
