Arcam MS 250 cd tray drive belt

[VJT]

Would anyone know the size and spec for the belt that opens the tray please?

It is probably a standard drive made by Sony or similar - you need to open it up and find which CD drive is installed and then find the drive belt for that model of drive.

Hi Thanks, Yes i have done that, it is a sony drive. I have measured its diameter and quote the model number, but not a lot of joy in finding a match so far. It looks to be square, but could have slightly tapered sides like an old type fan belt. No support from Arcam. If anyone has a reference number, that would be brill. Thanks again.

Your original belt may have stretched with age or even started to decompose. Price is for 1 belt. Ensure all surfaces are free from contamination before fitting the new one.

Hi Sorry, Sony reference on the drive is CRX230EE. If anyone has info, most appreciated.

If you have the diameter and the approx thickness then you should find what you want here. At those prices you cold take a punt on a couple of close sizes to save time.

Far and away the easiest method.

Trying to find a specific belt is a nightmare; best to buy a fistful of close matches and have a wiggle about. Done in an hour or so
