    I've got almost everything fixed on this one unit except the eject slips... it seems the tab that hits the piece that lifts the tape will slip off with even the smallest amount of pressure so I have to manually pop out cassettes

    any fix for this? ive gotten pretty far in there but didnt see a way to fix it.

    thanks!

    ok.. I figured out its another floppy spring problem.. which I kind of fixed by cutting the spring and bending a new end..

    is there anywhere to get new springs for these? its only an ok fix.. not a great one.

    Springs you can find on Aliexpress, but you need to know the dimensions: length, diameter and wire diameter.
    Ones sold specifically for the eject button is very unlikely to find since it's not a common problem.
