Good Points: Sound quality and features are superb, easy to use and user friendly.
Bad Points: The system developed problems after 18 months. It comes on for 4 seconds then goes back to standby led flashing. When you disable the CD system is when it can work, there seems some problem with CD powering up.
General comments: I have studied the main PCB. There's a transistor which is supposed to regulate 3.3v q906 from either the emitter or collector which is malfunctioning giving a voltage 1.6 which cannot power the CD.
The cable for the CMT-CPX22 from the supply should provide 5v to the collector or emitter of q906 as indicated on the PCB via a capacitor but if you measure that pin which is indicated 5v its 12v is this a factory fault or design?
what can be done on q906 because its an SMD transistor? Any replacement from Sony or equivalent?
