Does anyone know where I can get this part and/ or can it be replaced?
Thank you

Donor unit or 3d printer?

Something like this:


But with more steps to copy the still good part of the gear wheel.

3D printing is 100% the way to go here.  Shouldn't be too hard to model up in CAD if you know how many teeth and OD/ID

I did a similar fix for an OG XBox CD drive.  Although FDM might not have the resolution needed.  Might need to get it printed in resin or polyjet

I searched for "Sony CD Roulette Gear" and found this 3D print: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/gadget/sony-cd-player-gear-wheel

There were also people selling ready made ones on eBay and Etsy.

AliExpress has them too. Look for "Sony CD Gear" on there and match from the pictures.
