None of the usual suppliers such as pacparts has any stock left of the older Toshiba parts. At this point if you can find a working transport assembly salvage it for spare parts.
The parts are as follows;
Loading motor assembly was $35 part# 79070484
Feed motor was $27 part# 79070421
Laser pickup part# 79070470 overpriced, I think the last price was $150
The spindle motor RM01, CL923U was not available separately, part of the laser assembly I believe and there is a problem, many of the single bearing DVD player spindle motors have a high failure. They are usually just a 5 to 15 dollar part. Unless you can find a part house that still has some NOS motors, you'll be hard pressed to find a used Toshiba 9200 that has a working spindle motor after 10 years of use. The only solution is a kludge to adapt a motor from a DVD Rom drive to the control board it will need to be a 5 lead motor. A shame that an expensive player is basically unrepairable after 10 years due to a simple motor.
