Having the same problem! The CD's would not play and would not spin - it would say pause etc - went back to shop and they cleaned it and said that was the problem - got it back again and same thing was happening intermittently etc - then the spindle motor completely broke and a huge clunk was heard (not even had it a year!) These parts have been replaced and I am hoping that the pause syndrome was connected to the spindle motor just about to break - any ideas - haven't picked it back up from the shop yet - what parts are they recommending you change wayne?
