Yes there are many myths that run rampant, one of them is old capacitors should always be replaced because they're dried out etc. That's something...
Unfortunately yahoo.jp is no longer available to EU and UK since April 6, 2022. And I have an impression that is the case with other Japanese...
This was already discussed on another thread, but I want to point out some facts: - those output capacitors operate at 1.35V in circuit (even...
You can find the current draw for specific models in their respective service manuals, it's written on the schematic near the DC in jack symbol....
In regard to the WM-20 you want, I can't give you an exact amount on how much you should pay on one (that's something only you know). Prices on...
Hello and welcome to the forum, @flyman ! I think it's best to create a separate thread on Tech Talk section in regard to your problem. But you...
Current draw should be 70mA (at 3V, although it won't change much with a lower voltage). A higher current does indicate the motor has increased...
The back EMF is conducted, meaning it's a singal that goes through the motor wires, not an RF singal (radiated). So flipping the PCB won't make...
I agree with @TooCooL4, the price now is whatever people are willing to pay (at least that's what it should be, practice is more complex). In...
I have seen this before in DDs, it's motor hum: it is caused by some unevenness in the motor rotation, which in turn is caused by intermittent...
@zahrah If I were you, I'd restore the unit and keep for personal use as you probably won't get much money on it. Cleaning and polishing the case...
Hello and welcome to the forum ! Sorry, but what I see in pictures is very far from mint condition ! There are significant signs of wear on the...
I am definetly interested in WM-10 parts, hence why I asked for updates once a prototype gear is made functional. From my observation, it might...
You need to break the gear in another point (or two) in order to fix this gear properly, because the break is usually not a fixed number of teeth....
JVC CX-F3K/CX-4 & AKAI PM-R5 - mechanism will need a cleaning and re-lubrication of rotating parts; - motor will need to be lubricated; - belt...
Panasonic/National RX-2700 - mechanism is identical to the Infinity Intimate Stereo, AKAI-PM01, Cybernet MiniConcert/Intimate, the extra parts...
SONY ZX-7 - rubber needs to be restored or replaced (note that not all rubber parts are available); - rotating parts need cleaning and...
This thread will cover the repair procedure for the clutch in the CX-5, CX-7, CX-F5, CX-F7, CX-R7 and CX-V9 walkmans. They all share the same...
I almost always use NiMH rechargable batteries in walkmans because of 3 aspects: - convenience (with a supply they're not so portable anymore); -...
I think you are just very lucky as it has been mentioned already. I have seen others saying such units exist, but I've never seen a DD without a...
