A small motor turns a belt, which then drives the gear that operates the drawer. Over time this belt stretches or breaks, and the drawer doesn't open. Replacing the belt cures the problem.
I've looked at the couple of belt catalogs I have, and nothing for NAD is listed. You'll need to measure the old belt circumference and thickness. Almost all of these are square belts, usually in the range of 2.5 to 3.5 inches circumference. If you're measuring the old belt, take off 10 to 15% since it has stretched.
A local electronic service shop may have a suitable replacement. Otherwise there are many sources online (MCM Electronics is one I deal with frequently here in the US). In a pinch, you can even use a small rubber band until you find the right replacement.
Hope this has helped. Thanks for using Fixya!
An o-ring from ace hardware's plumbing department works perfect for 49 cents. Size will be 1-1/2 ID X 1/16 thick O-ring....or the official o-ring part is AS568-029.( 1.489 x .070) Nitrile rubber.
