This seems to be the area to ask questions on Laserdisc players.
I have a Pioneer LD-S2 that while the bottom door seems to "lock" (there's resistance when opening it again), it rests a bit open and there's a gap.
I'm familiar with servicing the player (a real pain but worth it) but for the life of me I can't figure out what's wrong with the bottom door.
It looks to be the same hinge mechanism as other Elite players of the era.
In trying to get a better look, after removing the two screws on the gold side panels of the faceplate they appear to be glued on quite well.
I'm afraid to pry them off and possibly bend them in the process.
The player is great condition in all other areas, just this cosmetic problem with the door has been bugging me.
Anybody ever seen this with this era of players?
