Pioneer PD-4100

Hi, I just bought a pioneer pd-4100, it was suppose to have worked when shipped. When I tried it out it would not, I heard something loose inside so I opened the case and found this clear round piece. What is it and where does it go? And would it keep the cd player from working?
Thanks, Chris

Looks like your CD player's objective lens came off. Your CD player won't work unless you repair it's optical pickup.

Yes, the lens has fallen off. Try fixing it back on the laser transport ensuring that the lens stays clear. If it does not work, then you'd have to replace the laser transport. I think your player uses the PWY1010 Laser Transport.
