I have a dead CD player, a Yahama model CD-X2.  Got it about 8 years
ago.  Has (or had) "Double resolution digital filter" which probably
means 2x oversampling.  It also has 2 problems:  1st problem is a
tendency to mistrack when playing CDs (sometimes really screws up,
then reload the CD and it may play fine).  Lived with that for a while,
then I bought a Magnavox with 4x oversampling.  Took the Yahama to my
parent's house to listen to CDs I might buy in the area.  2nd problem:
Few months later, the control function died.  Display would be all
scrambled, it wouldn't respond to the front panel buttons, it would
stick its tray out and not stop the tray motor, and such.  
Took the cover off, unplugged and replugged some connectors, no good.

Anyone have a similar failure on this model, and a possible fix?
I have the newer machine, so I'm not out of CD music.  Probably
not worth fixing?
