Couple Problems With My N3

So my N3 started acting up..

 

Basically, the screen won't go in and out anymore. It is out right now and flipped up but it is sitting abit crooked (right side is out a bit further the the left).. I know that for one thing, one of the gears is broken off as i can see it broken off inside the unit..

 

The other problem is that it doesn't accept/eject discs anymore. Doesn't even make an attempt, (in other words, you can't hear motor even trying to eject/insert the disk).. it also flashes mechanism error on the screen.

 

What all do you think is possibly wrong with the deck? Is it even worth getting it fixed? How much do you think Pioneer would charge to fix it?

 

Thanks.

Sounds like your unit needs Viagra. (Won't go up anymore?) J/K... Call 1 (800)421-1603, (Pioneer Service) and ask for a general estimate on your issue. Compare that against a used unit. If the repair bill is less than $100 more than a used unit, get the repair and a short(usu. 30 days), but still comforting, warranty(if it's gonna break, it will happen quickly).
