RCA capacitance electronic discs

This sounds like caps going bad. I've never had color problems with any of mine. I have 5 units and over 100 discs. Only been collecting for 2 years but it's a real fun hobby. I think one of mine is the same model as yours but I'd have to check. I could probably get more details if your still having this problem.

Thank you for all the help; it has been very informative. I am still using my RCA CED player, and unfortunately, I am still having the color problem. My player is unpredictable; sometimes it will play a disc without the problem, and other times it will have the problem. I can never tell when it is going to do it, but once it starts, it continues throughout the rest of the disc.



I have never replaced bad caps before, so I am not sure what to do. Perhaps I will have to find someone to repair it for me, but I do not know who is skilled or even familiar with CED players & would know how to repair them.



I have been collecting CEDs for almost 10 years now. I have a fairly large collection of discs, and I only have this one CED player. My player was the first model of CED player available, and it seems to be one of the more common models of players.

Yeah I have the first model, second model, and some newer units including one with stereo out. Caps are the easiest thing to replace. Actually, if you were close, is probably be able to resolve the issue.
