Odd that that corrosion was under the ribbon cable. Nice attempt at a fix. Will be interested to find out why there's no sound though. Meanwhile, it's handy as a tape rewinder.

Thanks, I am thinking that the caps are probably gone on the audio side as this was a common issue with AIWAs too.

@@AvidRetro Interesting. That would be one cause of the corrosion there, I suppose. Wikipedia says that the 'capacitor plague' was primarily 1999-2007 manufactured devices, but I'm yet to see any practical evidence of that one way or the other.

gluing that head connector is definitely missing connection😂 try soldering

I may well do. I’ve been practicing my soldering since that video on smaller components and not forgetting solder flux 😀

hello! i own this model and despite it turning on, flashing, beeping etc i can’t work out how to get it to play tapes or if it’s malfunctioning? is there something i’m missing (ie. how does one actually get it to play) or do you know of any reputable service companies (it was my mums so i’m keen to get it working properly). thank you so much!!

I hope you can get it working. In some of my other videos on similar ones I find that the capstan side tends to get sticky or struggle moving. I would keep trying various things, although if it is a fault on the PCB it will be harder to fix. Did you check the belt also?

Salve. Volevo sapere se funziona senza le cuffie.....ossia se la cassetta gira comunque al suo interno anche senza le cuffie inserite... oppure rimane bloccato e non si mette in moto. Grazie

Sì, era ancora in grado di funzionare senza le cuffie inserite.
