OK, no answers so I guess no one knows. I will let you know if the eye transplant on my CD player is a success.

Thats all you can do other than send it back to Meridian. Let us know how you get on, perhaps take some pics on the way to help those that may follow you in time. Cheers, Chris 
No 18 in the Hall of fame I have simple tastes; I am content to settle for the best: GIK monster bass panels, rear wall. QNAP TVS 471i3. Roon into DSP5200SE via 210/ 218 zone... Explorer 2. Bluesound Pulse 2, Mini & Flex. 596v1, 518, Foxsat HD, Sony BDP, Pioneer 5090, 2 Chromecast's for LRB videos. MS200 to F80 for a Roon zone

The repair was a success! It is not that easy unless you are experienced with a soldering iron but its quite possible to do it yourself. I have some photos and plan to write instructions to guide you through it. I can also supply the drives or repair the CD player for you.

It would not be practical for me to send my player accross the pond for repair. But I would be very interested in the instructions and parts sources.

Hi Azazel,
I'd be interested in where you got hold of the bits. I'll be needing to do some surgery on a drive pretty soon.
Cheers,
Mark.
