Hello, I own 3 Japanese Saturn. One HST-3200, one HST-3210 and one HST-3220.
I'm here to try to repair one of them. I'll create a new post asking for help.
I don't know how to start a new thread in the hardware section. Can any one help me?
Regards

Ok, so I will post my problem here as I cannot create a new thread in the hardware section and I don't know how to get permission to do it.
My problem is that my HST-3200 japanese gray Saturn is not reading discs. Not music CDs, nor games. I have swapped the whole drive with my other HST-3210 and it's working perfectly so I can assure that the problem is not the reading unit.
Another clue is that the discs are being detected as "track 1 - 728:14 minutes" no matter is a music CD or a game. Maybe this lead to follow on finding a solution.
Don't know where to start working. I already visually checked all the capacitors and they look good and in perfect shape with no leaking at all.
Any ideas?
Regards

Hi,
I’m not tech enough to help with your problem I am afraid, but the forum rules state
“NOTE: AS OF 16TH DECEMBER 2023 DUE TO AN INCREASED NUMBER OF SPAM POSTS NEW MEMBERS WILL NOW BE RESTRICTED TO POSTING AND REPLYING WITHIN THE 'NEWBIES HERE' AREA, UNTIL THEY HAVE A POST COUNT OF 3 OR OVER. OTHER AREAS OF THE FORUM REMAIN AVAILABLE TO READ ONLY, WE APOLOGISE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY CAUSE.”
Therefore I’m presuming if you reply again on here, you should be able to go and then post in the correct section.

Oh, you are right, so embarrased. I've read the forum rules and did not read that😅
Thanks!
