This special edition contains instructions on CD-applications with playability problems (i.e.
skipping tracks).The information shows how to check the playability of the set, how to
clean the lens, and how to measure if some important drive parameters like jitter, laser
current and offset values are (still) within the specification.
Background for this information are extensive analyses on replaced CD-drives. It has
been found that a lot of replaced drives were not defective at all, respectively were
replaced for the wrong reason.We are convinced that the procedures on the next pages
will help to reduce the number of erroneously replaced drives drastically and request you
to deploy the instructions to the workshops urgently.

CUSTOMER INFORMATION
It is proposed to add an addendum sheet to the set which
informs the customer that the set has been checked
carefully - but no fault was found.
The problem was obviously caused by a scratched, dirty or
copy-protected CD. In case problems remain, the customer
is requested to contact the workshop directly.
The lens cleaning (method 3) should be mentioned in the
addendum sheet.
The final wording in national language as well as the printing
is under responsibility of the Regional Service Organizations.
Insert the lens cleaning CD, press PLAY and follow the
voice guide´s instructions on the CD.

LIQUID LENS CLEANING
Because the material of the lens is synthetic and coated
with a special anti-reflectivity layer, cleaning must be done
with a non-aggressive cleaning fluid. It is advised to use
“Cleaning Solvent B4-No2”, available with codenumber
4822 389 10026.
The actuator is a very precise mechanical component and
may not be damaged in order to guarantee its full function.
Clean the lens gently (don’t press too hard) with a soft and
clean cotton bud moistened with the special lens cleaner.
The direction of cleaning must be in the way as indicated in
the picture below.
Before touching the lens it is advised to clean the
surface of the lens by blowing clean air over it.
This to avoid that little particles make scratches on
the lens.

EYE-PATTERN SIGNAL – JITTER MEASUREMENT
Measure the signal on the input of the Signal processor
using an analog oscilloscope. Please find the exact
measuring point in your Service Manual.
See below examples of the signal. Amplitude should read at
least 700mVpp using SBC444A.
good
bad
If the oscilloscope shows a signal like the ‘bad’ one, and/or
the amplitude decreases within 1 minute - the CD drive has
to be replaced.
6
CD DRIVE – LASER CURRENT MEASUREMENT
The laser current can be measured as a voltage drop on a
resistor. The resistor is marked in every Service Manual.
The value depends on the type of CD drive.
typical valuemost probably defect
VAMxxxx: 150-230mV≥350mV
MCDxx: 170-230mV≥300mV
DA1x: 210-250mV≥350mV
DA2x: 175-200mV≥250mV
Use SBC444A (CD-DA) for measurement.
7
CD DRIVE – OFFSET MEASUREMENT
The photodiodes of the CD-drive may have an offset. These
offsets have to be compensated by the signal processor.
High offsets can lead to poor playability of some CDs
(skipping tracks).
To measure the offset values, start the
Service Test
Program
- section “Focus Test” without a CD.
The offsets can be measured with a DC Millivoltmeter
directly on the connector (see drawing below). Pin
numbering varies from drive to drive.
The values from diode A-D should read 0±10mV.
Diodes E and F are less critical.
If one of the offsets is higher than ±10mV the CD drive has
to be replaced. Otherwise replace the Signal Processor.
