Weird. All the text, etc. of my earlier post about a service manual for a Toshiba SD-2800 is gone like a fart in a breeze. Anyway, am trying to ID the part number for the itty bitty gear that fits on the motor shaft of the motor that drives the laser assembly. Mine is cracked and it causes the player to hang every time that crack comes around to mesh with the next meshing tooth on the driven gear. If anyone has the service manual I'd sure appreciate learning the p/n for that gear. All the on-line sources for parts list descriptions that make it impossible know which gear to order. They have real helpful descriptions like: Gear A, or Gear B - and of course there are no pictures. I sure hate to throw away a perfectly good DVD player for want of a 2¢ nylon gear.
