Awesome info as usual thanks! with regard to the logic buttons I haven’t actually done anything to it to resolve that, although I did spray in a...
Well, exciting times. I received the headphone 3.5mm adaptor at last today and can thankfully say this unit has no issues at all with the actual...
Hey Mister X, thanks so much for that service manual link, I had looked for the correct one online and not found one for the 702, but had some...
Ok managed to get that apart seemingly without any damage (and amazingly didn’t slash my fingers to bits!), so I need to call it a night for today...
Fantastic info again thankyou kindly. First up, prior to trying to remove the motor I’ve applied minuscule amounts of oil (with a pinhead...
I just received some fresh supply of contact cleaner today so at least I can try this now. I often use brake cleaner or carb cleaner for that task...
Thanks Raul, I will get one of those manuals you suggested then cheers. Valentin, thanks for the description and picture. A funny thing happened...
Well one of the table reels spins very easily but the other feels like it must be engaged and turning a mechanism as it has quite a bit of...

Hey guys Finally managed to pick up one of the Walkman models I’d always really wanted, a WM-F702, in fantastic overall condition, for £45. Now...
Well unfortunately this didn’t work. The 3 cables all now appear to be good and all have good continuity right through, yet the unit does display...

Thanks, yeah it did cross my mind about how much they might cost to have made, as I have used a pcb place in China before and they were super...
Well I'm back again folks. :) I ended up buying another 'faulty' one of these models on ebay again (£25 for this one), but from a different...
That thought did occur to me if I'm honest, specially after reading the below about another with a sheared cable. It's odd as I've never seen...
Ha ha, yeah you called it! Are the rollers tricky to replace? Never had to change bits like that before, just electronic parts and belts really....
Thanks yeah I pretty much agree with all of that although I did still try to rejoin the ribbon anyway just for fun. Was just too tiny and...
Yeah so maybe there are other problems additional to the belt but this is absolutely a show stopper at this point. I will try to see if I can...
I just tried another belt I had here but also too loose, so I put the original back on. After doing that it does actually manage to turn...
Cosmetically the wear around these controls on the end is the only bad bit. Rest of it is in nice condition!
