 +**A Note on "dead" units that don't power up:**
 +  * Some users have reported an odd power issue (sometimes related to battery terminal corrosion) where the unit does not appear to power up either under battery or dc power. If tilted a bit, however, the LCD appears to be getting some power as it will be visible powering back off. First step would be to clean off the battery corrosion (lemon juice or white vinegar, followed by isopropyl alcohol to clean everything up). Afterward, from the [[https://www.facebook.com/groups/729751677160254/|FB Minidisc Repair group]], user Andre Ho suggested the following: 
 +      * “I have got two of these and it's seems to be that if left unused for a while the fail to turn on. Keep lighting the display up by pressing any button on remote or unit and mix it up with the mains current eventually it will turn on but It took mine nearly 45 minutes of doing that and just as I was about to give up it lit up. Also try a rechargeable battery in the unit and leave it in the charge stand if you have one that also worked for me. Good luck.”
 +  * Note - This may not be a permanent fix and the issue may re-emerge, though it's reported that the same "fix" can revive the player. Obviously, the continued presence of the issue indicates other power issues to diagnose / resolve.
 +
 +** Potential Write-head failure **
 +
 +Similar to the MZ-N1, you may notice skipping during recording, recording silence instead of audio, or the unit fails to write anything to the disc at all (for example if you started with a blank disc, recorded it in this unit, and then ejected the disc or put the disc into another machine, and the disc is still blank).
 +
 +You may need to do the [[guides:repair:n1_write_head|Write head repair]].
 +
 +Before doing the write head repair, especially if your unit is also struggling //playing// discs, you may want to do basic maintenance such as cleaning and re-lubing the machine.
