Are you following the DD33 service manual? DD33 is quartz locked, and the speed must be set with the solder bridge open, set to 3090hz, then close...
Ah I forgot this model does not have a mute switch. Can you take a photo of the board with the new caps?
Check the position of the muting switch- flip the board over, and manually press both switches with your fingers. Can you hear a hiss?
Is it late serial number? I had this issue with a late serial 4th revision, had to replace a mylar cap on the quartz lock circuit.
You can always use higher voltage caps. The uf value should stay the same. For Walkmans, size of the caps matters most.
Now that is nice! It's probably NOS, but finding a good source is probably difficult for them. Unfortunately, TDK metal stock tend to have...
You can, but it's not really required if your battery contacts are good/clean.
[ATTACH] Be careful, the clutch Assy is already broken and may flt apart when you remove it! The highlighted Takeup gear is also commonly broken.
No I would not charge them in the Aiwas for their Lead acid Battery chargers. There are also Nimh battery chargers that self adapt to different...

Replace all the electrolytic capacitors, common issue in this model. You'll probably need to learn to solder/desolder SMD caps. Look at my 2017...
Replace all the the electrolytic capacitors. Common issue in this model.
Not required as long as your battery contacts are good. Usually that capacitor is 220/470uf in my experience, not 4.7
As we all know, the Aiwa Sealed Lead Acid Batteries are no longer usable today. However, some of us don't have the AAA battery adapter, or just...
You can use copper sheet to make a new contact, it is more durable than aluminum foil. The battery adapter in my picture is a DIY solution to...
Not true. There are plenty of great lower case Aiwa models, such as the 4ZM series, and even 0ZM (JX929). Even their tail end lower end plastic...
All those are good Aiwas except the TX446, but unless you have experience or are ready to learn recapping/desoldering Walkmans, stay away from...
My experience with the play/rec switch is that Deoxit does not help for long, it has to be desoldered, disassembled and the contact surfaces of...
In the 3 generations of D6C I own (1st, 3rd, 4th) all have different factory bias settings, presumably to match Sony blanks of the time. Out of...
As each P202 series board might be different I will not mark out the components and orientation for the guide, you do that yourself when you open...
