Possibly the drawer belt if it has one.. mine did different model. its a small belt beside the drawer and it wears out. I got a replacement from the states. was a little tricky to fit

I had one a few years back and fitted an elastic band which worked a treat.

I seem to remember it being a wiring tie under the mech! Belt will need changing all the same.. I used to buy all my CDP belts from Cricklewood Electronics

I had a NAD 521i that had the same problem.

I was going to throw it out when I moved house, but as a last resort I gave it couple of whacks on the side and hey presto!

30 years old ! Well you are going to have to open it up . Belt slipping or the mechanism grease gone a bit gooey. Good luck let us know what you find.
