It is about years old and the tape player and radio are still fine.

Answer

there are lots reasons that cause the cd player not see the cds. if there is no laser light, laser len dirty, bad disc, etc all of these can cause the player not see the CD. Here are some things you can trybr clean laser len, open CD lid, use dry soft cloth clean the len, make sure no dust. see this fix the problembr if above step did not fix it, clean your CD in up down motion using dry soft cloth, and hold you CD toward light, lable side face the light, if you can see through from other side , or see some holes, the CD is badbr if above two step did not fix it, here is one more thing to try this is dangerous , open CD lid, there is a door swith , which when you close the door, it pushs the switch close, you can use a pen or paper clip to manualy close the switch, once the switch close, you will see the laser pick up moves toward the center, then the len moves up down up and up down three times try to focus, during this time, you should see red lightwhich is laser light. If you dont see the light, you may have bad laser pick up then you need send to service. DO NOT GET TOO CLOSE TO THE LASER LIGHT, IT MIGHT BURN YOUR EYE. brgo luck
