This is a complete CD mechanism suitable for replacement in many Sanyo, Philips and Alba models. This is a Sanyo part but this mechanism will fit into many other brands of CD players and HiFi's as many manufacturers use the SF-P101N laser. Please note however that there are two versions of the SF-P101N laser. One has 16 pins on the lasers ribbon connector and the other has 15 pins. The 16 pin type is what is supplied here as this is the most common type. Please see our other listings for the 15 pin version. The 16 pin and 15 pin versions are not interchangeable.

The SF-P101N laser as fitted to this mechanism crops up in lots of different brands of CD players and HiFi's. The laser type number is stamped onto the casing of the laser. So if you have an SF-P101N stamped on your faulty laser then this is the mechanism for you. Just count the number of pins on the edge connector to confirm there are 16 of them.

If you have a CD player or HiFi with a defective SF-P101N laser then you can replace this entire mechanism, this will provide an extremely effective repair as all the moving parts in the CD reading mechanism get replaced.

This mechanism includes the following: 

• Chassis Base
• SF-P101N  Laser / Optical Pick Assembly / Genuine Sanyo Part
• Spindle Motor
• Sled Motor
• Nylon Driving Gears
• Slide Rods

If the mechanism in your machine is different though uses an SF-P101N then you can easily remove the laser from this mechanism and fit into your unit.

This mechanism is excellent value as purchase of all the parts separately would cost you more than £30.00!!

This item is used in our own workshop for repairs and we are making it available for those who wish to repair their own CD player. Only to be purchased by those competent in the repair of electrical equipment. The fitting of this part is generally quite easy. If you are not confident about changing the whole mechanism then it is perfectly acceptable to remove the laser as previously mentioned for fitting into your unit. There is only one important point to note. The laser as supplied new has a solder link in place to protect the it from static electricity damage. You need to remove this small link with a soldering iron or sharp knife. This is shown in the second last picture of this listing. It is to the left of the connector on the laser. The laser is also fitted with a protective plastic cover. This simply unclips and is to be discarded after fitting the mechanism in place.

In some cases the flexible connection strip can fail and we do recommend that you consider replacement of this item. The flexible strip is the 16 way flat cable which carries the signals and power to and from the laser assembly. Since the laser is constantly moving backwards and forwards the internal wires can snap in this connection strip. In the components section in our shop we have this item available for only £2.99, there is no postage on this item if purchased in addition to the CD mechanism. The cable in question is listed as the flexible strip for a KSS213 / KSM213CCM.
