Pioneer PDM600

I have a Pioneer PDM600 CD player.

The player will not recognize & play CDs

After opening case, I found it will load each disc from cartridge, but
drive motor does not spin. (yes, CDs are being loaded correct
orientation - label down for this type of player)

Motor is good and cabling from cct board to motor tests okay.

Any ideas why power may not be getting to drive motor?

Why the motor is not running? The laser is not making focus, the motor
could be bad, the motor drive circuit could have a problem, etc. Read the
cd player information at www.repairfaq.org, do some troubleshooting, and
repost the results with some minimal useful information.

Some of these the lens will just fall off the laser unit. With care a tech
may be able to re-attach it, if it can be found rolling around in there.

Some other models had a bad pickup flex cable.

There are some other Pioneer models on which a shorted spindle motor was a
common problem.

Or maybe the pickup is just bad.

Way down on the list is a bad IC protector, voltage regulator IC, decoder
IC, other electronic problems.

Call me crazy, but have you tried cleaning the lens yet? Just clean it

with a q-tip with a tiny amount of isopropyl alcohol on it. I know that
fixed the same problem on a car cd player I had.
 
Since the lens is "upside down" on a Pioneer, cleaning is rarely the
problem. Not that they don't get dirty in there, it just doesn't tend to
settle in on the pickup lens.

See the CD Player Repair Guide at the site below. Specific info on
Pioneer. Typically, spindle motor, cable, dropped lens, tired suspension
grommets.
