Opening my Discman up....

[rjensen11]

I have a Sony D-EJ611, and since it's past its warrenty and something's wrong with it(headphone jack), I was wanting to open it up. So I removed the three screws with arrows, but it won't open up... How do I open it up? Or must I unscrew the lense and the stuff for that as well? I hope not, because that would be hard as hell to re-adjust perfectly....

My main questioning is, would there be any screws in the feet/grips on the bottom of the machine? Or is there a button that I have to push down with a screwdriver or something to open it up? Or, unscrew the lense system?

Never mind, I got it open.
Turns out that there's a bunch of latches that you have to push in by pushing in on the bottom part of the unit, then pull the bottom and the middle/top part away. I wish I could replace that headphones jack though.... Oh well....

The headphone jack on my Sony D-EJ611 crapped out on me too.

I just checked out a few reviews, and apparently Sony is famous for this type of junk.

Hrmm, I thought my problem was because I kept on putting it in my backpack, and I formulated a theory that it could've been my stupidity of leaving the headphones plugged into my CD player that could have messed it up by my cd player being dropped and landing on the plug with the headphones still connected....
