Shouldnt the disc be spinning continually after it is fed in as it seems to get a start on and then stops, when it stops it ejects the disc and puts in the next one ?...

This behaviour indicates that the player cannot read any disc. It could be that the laser is dead...

It could also be that the disc is upside down? Just chucking that out there... ;)

Are the discs factory (silver) discs or burnt (yellow-ish or green-ish)? Some players won't play burnt discs well (or at all).

Hi there, disks are up the right way and are factory disks, the disk is supposed to spin quite fast isnt it when it is in the player ? If it doesent does that indicate laser ?.
Maybe I will try and give it a better clean ?

Hey man if you want I ripped out the CD changer in mine to put an aftermarket amp in its place. No clue if it works I haven't used CD's in a decade. But you're welcome to it if you wanna pay the shipping.

oops.. noticed you're in Austrailia. Nevermind lol

Thanks for the offer FRod1981 I have purchased another locally probably cheaper than the shipping to Aus , anyway thanks again.

Yeah that’s what I figured. Good luck!
