RIO Volt MP3 Player - SP90 and SP250


	The RIO VOLT was a great little unit! Unfortunately it was made by RIO, which went out of business and was bought out by someone. The player had a lot of good features. I bought one SP90 for me and another for my son for Christmas. My other son bought an SP250 which was Black and had a lot of other features. They all failed just within a year. And of course just when RIO was going under. The problem was with there Laser Pickup Assembly. (See picture below)
As you can see, the ribbon that connected the Pickup to the player broke in to. What I found was that when the player was reading a track near the edge of the disk, It would put stress on the ribbon. Eventually this stress and the flexing would brake the ribbon. This happened to all 3 of the players without exception. This of course rendered the player useless.		I tried to find the parts for this with no luck. I'm offering a reward of $50 bucks to anyone that can find me a replacement for these out- side of RIO. I will never do business with Rio or any company that now owns them for more reasons than I will divulge here.
What I'm looking for!
The pickup - spindle assymbly had a number on it. I'm not sure that its a part number but may help. OWA1303974. The pictures to the right show the details of the pickup spindle assymbly.
