There is something else causing your mechansim to run backwards. The fact that you put oil on the motor has nothing to do with it. Make sure the...
There are only 2 electrolytic capacitors in the audio path of the DDII: C114 and C214, the 2 output DC-blocking capacitors. If those were to be...
Thanks for sharing the link ! It is a very complex deck by the looks of it. Those dbx/Doby encoding and decoding cards are large. Really like the...
I don't know what to recommend specifically other than make sure everything is rotating smoothly in the mechanism, including the motor. Dried...
Seems like it doesn't have enough torque to pull the tape when the takeup reel is full. Does this happen with any cassette or just with the one...
Both animated and clickable sound like good ideas to me. What I imagine it like is the following: - animation showing them faded them making them...
@Fiplo When device is is play is there any background noise (hiss) that you can hear ? Turn the volume at maximum to be sure. If amplifiers are...
@stef It would be useful to put some prices.
From what I can see this unit is a dual-capstan one. Given this, it is worth checking/replacing both pinch rollers to make sure the tape tension...
Mechanics-wise, all DDs are almost identical: WM-DD, WM-DDII, WM-DDIII, WM-DD30, WM-DD33, WM-D3, WM-DC2, WM-DD100. The different ones are the...
FF/REW not working is a relatively common problem, especially if the unit has not been used for a long time. Cause is dried grease on a lever. I...
Glad to see a D6C bought at such a good price ! Thanks for sharing ! Maybe people will learn from this that these devices can be found at prices...
Yes, replacing just C103 and C203 will do the trick.
Hypotetically it is possible, but it my opinion not worth it unless you already have the replacement one. The original one is more than good...
From what I see in the schematics there is a difference in the compensation circuit in parallel with the head: - WM-DD33 uses C=1000pF and R=47k;...
I'm really glad to hear you were able to finally fix it ! This tight fit creating friction makes a lot more sense than the spring. I remember of...
Indeed check that the mode switch is aligned with the mechanism. There is a hole in the PCB where you can align that switch with a pair of tweezers.
Use the one that you have found to be the closest to original. Not worth bothering to find the original, as you won't find one unless you but a...
It sounds like rubber slipping, like a dried rubber tire. I wanted to say pinch rollers, but you say you already replaced those. Make sure...
Just found this: https://insidehifi.blogspot.com/2014/04/jvc-dd-5.html Given what I see in the picture @Mister X posted, it's a direct drive. It...
