Your best bet:
If you cannot find someone local to repair your LDV-1000 series... ( I did, back in 1995, and mine is still running on an LDV-1000)
Go ahead and find one of those great conversion cards, like the High Tech Card that uses the more modern & reliabale Sony Lasermax player! Last I checked they are available again from High Tech, and there are other makers too!
Myself, I got on of those cards and the sony player, for just in case!
