CD-ROM ejection failure / cracked gear
The Toshiba CD-ROM will eventually break a nylon gear in the ejection
mechanism making the unit fail to eject/retract the tray.
The problem is a small nylon cog which cracks over time.
The replacement cog has the following dimensions:
- in “cog” speak - “0.4M 12 Teeth 2A”
- the brass replacements on ebay may need the hole bored out a litle bit to
fit the motor shaft
- Total height (Teeth + shaft height): 5mm
- Teeth height: 3mm
- Shaft height: 2mm
- Teeth diameter: 5.4mm
- Shaft diameter: 3.6mm
