I did clean some grease that was on the plunger from the top side but haven’t looked underneath yet. I don’t see why it only does it during loading.
Unloading it works as it should.
I’ll check to see what’s going on below.

Well with the aid of the schematic I discovered why the tube heaters and the animation were not working. The connector was dangling in the air. Plugged it in and all works now.
Only downside is now the clamp arm is back to sticking upright after disc loading. When it unloads from the player it goes up high enough to clear the gripper. Nice and smooth motion. I guess I have to remove the mech and get a look underneath

Does the lift plunger move freely? Could be gummed up lube...
