    I can't figure out how to edit this from my phone so I'll just add a picture or two here.

    Yes I really had this all apart so I could put the Deoxit into the controls.

    Front and back from the inside. Cleaned and serviced.

    If you can see in this picture cuz I only took a few, with this pixel cell phone I took a lot more with a regular camera that I normally use . I used painters tape that I wrote on the wires so I know where they plug in at. You have to do it on this model.

    Sounded good as well. My sole purpose was to buy this again, repair it as I can, which I did and then resell it for a little extra money more than I paid for it.

    I forgot that I shot this video and did not upload it untill today since 23 June 2024.
    Conion C-100FJ JDM (7:13) minutes.


    This still needs the correct torsion spring for the lower deck but I have made a work-a-round to make the lower deck play but I do not like my solution as I would prefer to have the correct spring in there.
    Member Caution showed me the correct part to have in there but I do not have that part yet, but it does work with my solution in there..
    A torsion spring is needed for this to be correct and I was shown a place to get that part, too. I just do not know what exact size and strength to get for it. I could just let it go and let the next person if they need to, replace that part with the correct item.

    Hi
    just for information ...
    did you also change the transformer
    or did you leave the original one working at 100 volts

    Nope!
    I live in the USA where the voltage is roughly 117 volts these. That's what I measure it here. Sure you know that everything is built with a tolerance and the Japanese model products are no exception. They have a tolerance to accept USA voltage which is roughly 10 volts more or even 20 volts more without an issue of burning out the transformer by being too hot of a voltage. Now if you really have an issue with that and want to go through the nonsense of getting a step down transformer. More power to you, but I would rather simply get a AC to DC wall-wart and then simply use the DC input to power the radio that it has instead of using the AC input and going through all that malarkey with a step down when you don't need one. Or do like I do and power it with rechargeable D size Znter lithium ion batteries.

    That's Sanyo mr-u4gp uses 7c batteries just so you know.
    I said I went and got a wall-wart and, 17226247840873716990357060531734.jpg
    It works just fine.

    This is the AC to DC, wall-wart That I use and it Powers the Conion just fine.
