Mend AIWA CA-DW700M

How can I unlock or unfreeze my AIWA CA-DW700M Boom Box?

I purchased an AIWA CA-DW700M boom box second hand. When the unit gets unplugged it goes into a flashing mode. Only the CD button will be lit up and the #1 disc will flash as well as the vertical green bars for discs 1 - 7. I've somehow cleared this out before but cannot figure it out this time. Last time I did so, it seemed like it had to go through an assessment of each disc and clear itself out before going into normal operation. I achieved this twice before but do not know how.

Front Left & Back Right Feet (Staring at Front) Must be pressed down Then it Works.

CD Cycles because it is preventing your discs from being scratched (IE DOESNT WORK)

On the underside are two little sensor buttons that can tell if the unit is on a flat surface. After reading this, I realised that the shelf mine is on had bowed enough that one of the buttons was no longer pressed. I put a board under it so that it was once again flat, and the little button was being pressed, and it works normally again.

My unit does the same. It goes thru a CD cycle for a couple minutes if power is ever lost. I checked the batteries, yes all 12 of them, doesn't matter if the batteries are there or not. Makes a good stationary radio though, even when all batteries are removed. (The remote still works when the 12 batteries are removed.) OK, so a valid solution is to allow for the 2-3 minutes of CD cycling if there was a power loss. Looking for more solutions, troubleshooting ideas.
