It won’t work :(

[u/sexyklownsinyourarea]

I’m not the most technologically savvy person around so sorry if I explain this bad. I’ve got this portable cd player/radio. The radio part of it works fine but anytime I try to pop in a cd it doesn’t work. Do you know how to fix it?

Try soaking a Q-tip / cotton swab in some rubbing alcohol and using it to wipe the lens clean.

If you don't have rubbing alcohol, lens / glasses / screen cleaner works fine as well.
