    Default Sega CDX laser replacement

    Does anyone know the laser model and number for the Sega CDX. I think my laser is dead (doesn't spin or read disks). It reminds me of my Sega CD Model 1 (same symptoms until I replaced the laser).

    Don't think, know

    You need to defeat the interlock switch for the lid. I sold my last CDX years ago so I can't recall how the lid switch works.

    With the CDX fooled into thinking the lid is closed, use a digital camera or camera phone and look at the laser and attempt to start a disc. If you see a blueish-white light appear from the laser lens and the lens hunt up and down, then the laser is probably still good.
