    so, my kids put some coins into the cd player. I used tweezers to get the visible ones out, but some fell in out of my reach. disc4 no longer works properly and is scratching my discs. any idea how to fix this? should i take it to the dealer service center?

    also, the armrest won't stay closed now... more specifically the lock won't catch to keep it closed/down. any idea about how to fix that one?

    my guess is the coin is in disc4 lol and it's the one scratch the disc. I think you're SOL in that respect unless you manage to disassemble the CD player (Which I don't recommend and prefer you take it to a professional).

    I haven't heard about the lock one before. Maybe latch is stuck?? Check that first before taking it in.
