I think there are opto sensors around the carousel, these may be faulty as the machine needs to know what position its at.

SOURCE: I have a Sony hi-fi

In most cases when the CD does not play it is possible that the optical head is a suspect. Sometimes it might pick up ordinary audio CD but will not play other formats. This indicates that the optical head is weak and so there is no detection or scanning of the CD . If the optical is working the tracks will be read immediately but with no scanning the laser head can be defective.

The main motor will not work in some cases as unless the tracks are read the drive motor will not work with signal from the processor. Also in some cases the central motor base can shift and so the distance to the disc can be more resulting in low detection. You can pull up the spindle to come closer.
Sometimes certain cleaner disks will not be tracked to run for cleaning as it will not be read and so will reject. Hence it is ideal to manually clean the laser head eye using a cleaning swap /cotton bud with gentle pressure on the lens eye.
If there is no result then watch if the CD spins or tries to spin. If so the board seems to work unless a test is taken on the main board but the possibility of a defective optical head can be the suspected fault.
If any of the above seems otherwise we must recheck with possibilities of a malfunction of the main processor board

Thank you for using Fixya

SOURCE: cd player won't spin disc

HelloCheck the sled motor. it is the motor that spins the disc inside, as soon as it has been loaded. Check the voltage comes to the leads of the motor first. If the voltage is there, and the motor does not spins, repalce the motor. It is a stepper motor, can be bought from most of the electronic spare part shops at your town. it is not a very colstly component. OK.

SOURCE: sony cdp-c215 wont read disc removed cover disc doesn't spin

The pladder motor that spins the disc is open, or the laser pickup is defective, the whole laser assembly would need to be replaced, not cost effective to repair cheaper to buy.

Nakamichi cd cassette player 1 not spinning discs

There's a Music Bank 7-disc player in use in my bedroom these days. Nice unit, but they used to come in for service once in a while- from what I could tell, these units don't 'park' the CD drawers on a soft power off- they simply shut down. When powered up again, they sometimes let the disc last in play slide off the tray & jam the machine. I've had no issues, as long as I always hit stop, wait for it to park, and then shut off. The analog output's sound has been very good (has a coax out as well).

CD DISC IS NOT SPINNING

Check the cd drawer sometimes the position switch is not detecting the drawer completely closed.

It could be an obstructing object stuck behind the drawer door who prevent the drawer to close completely.
