Hi everyone, I am looking for a FF gear for my WM-DD33 (ref. Sony 3-578-244-01 GEAR, FF on page 15 of service manual) - does anybody have a spare from a donor unit to sell/send me? @tomtom87 Valentin is hinting you may have one maybe? My gear's teeth are apparently worn out, I've tried the fix mentionned by @Valentin (https://stereo2go.com/forums/threads/new-way-to-adjust-wm-dd-ff-rew-gear-skip.8966/) but the gears will keep screeching when reaching the end of the tape. Thanks!
I have many DD33's in bits that I don't use, what do you have to trade? I am looking for parts for DD9 or an FF button for a DC2. I am willing to trade if you have anything I want.
Hi, thanks for your reply @TooCooL4 ! Unfortunately don't have anything for DD9 nor DC2 to trade, my collection is at its very start In the meantime I have found an electronics shop in France that apparently has this very gear in stock, placed an order and hope it is actually going to work - fingers crossed.
Received my new FF gears (bought a few of them in case), they are the real deal I still have some issue but then the gear itself is not the cause, maybe the centre gear itself is, will keep investigating.
