To Next PageTo Next PageWhy Pioneer CDJ-500S CD Player disc is not rotating when power is ON?
If the disc in your Pioneer CD Player isn't rotating even when the power is on, it might be because the disc rotation automatically stops if no operation has been performed for 80 minutes or more in pause mode. You can start playback by pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button. If you press the EJECT button, the door will open.
Why does my Pioneer CDJ-500S CD Player have no sound?
If there's no sound from your Pioneer CD Player, several things could be the cause. First, check that the output cables are correctly connected and not loose, referring to the installation instructions. Also, verify the settings of the audio mixer switches and sound volume controls. Ensure that the pin plugs and amplifier terminals are clean. Finally, make sure the player isn't in pause mode by pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button.
What to do if Pioneer CD Player playback stops immediately or pauses?
If your Pioneer CD Player stops or pauses during playback, it might be due to the disc being loaded upside down. Make sure the label side is UP. Another reason might be smudges on the disc. Clean the disc and try playing it again.
Why is sound distorted or noisy on my Pioneer CDJ-500S CD Player?
Distorted sound or noise from your Pioneer CD Player can result from incorrect connections. Ensure you're connected to the audio mixer's LINE INPUT terminals, not MIC terminals. Dirty pin plugs or amplifier terminals can also cause this, so clean them. Also, interference from a TV set can be the problem. Try switching off the TV, moving the player away, or plugging the player into a separate outlet.
What to do if Pioneer CD Player produces loud noise or stops with certain discs?
If your Pioneer CD Player makes loud noises or stops playing with specific discs, the disc may have a bad scratch or warp, in which case you should replace it. Alternatively, the disc could be extremely dirty, so try cleaning it.
What to do if the Pioneer CDJ-500S door does not open?
If the door of your Pioneer CD Player doesn't open when you press the EJECT button, make sure the power plug is connected to the wall outlet. If it is disconnected, connect the plug to the wall outlet.
Why is the TV screen flickering or FM broadcast interfered with when using Pioneer CDJ-500S?
If your TV screen flickers or FM broadcasts experience interference when using the Pioneer CD Player, it could be due to interference from the CD player itself. Try turning off the power to the player, or move it away from the TV or tuner.
Why Pioneer CD Player track search is not finished when auto cue is ON?
If the track search on your Pioneer CD Player isn't finishing when the auto cue function is on, it could be because the muted portion between selections is long, increasing the search time. To resolve this, press the TIME MODE/AUTO CUE button for more than 1 second to turn the auto cue function off. If a sound muted portion is recorded for about 20 seconds or more, playback will start without the auto cue function. In this case, press TIME MODE/AUTO CUE button for more than 1 second to set the auto cue function OFF.
