Once again owner-manual.com has saved the day for me, and come through with the manual I need. I looked other places too, and couldn't find it anywhere. Thank You owner-manual.com!!! You're the BEST!
The service manual is really great - thanks to it I was able to install the laser unit and thus "save" my CD-player, which seemed to be impossible before I had the manual.
This site is working fine! Did buy a manual for SX-EX25L and after a while I could download it and fix the problem. Nice and easy!

� Method-2 (In service mode or normal operation): Check the value of current flowing in the laser diode. 1. Remove the upper cabinet. 2. Read the current printed on the label attached on the rear side of the optical pick-up.

3. Connect a digital voltmeter as shown in Fig. 2. 4. Press the � key. 5. Calculate current value by the reading of the digital voltmeter. Reading of the digital voltmeter (V) ÷ 4.7 (�) = current value (A) (Example) Reading of the digital voltmeter of 0.1645 V: 0.1645 V ÷ 4.7 � = 0.035 (A) = 35 mA 6. Check that the current value is within the following range. � Current value of the label +5 mA (25�C) �11 Variation by temperature: 0.4 mA/�C Current increases with temperature increased. Current decreases with temperature decreased. If the current is more than the range above, there is a trouble in the automatic power control circuit or the laser diode is in deterioration. If less than the range, a trouble exists in the automatic power control circuit or the optical pick-up.
