Given what you have discovered with the potentiometer, I would make sure that both channels of the pot are actually working before going anywhere...
Ok, first of all you don't need to quote the previous post since it's just before your own. It only adds redundant information and makes the...
So the volume went slightly higher just by putting it back together ? And before the volume would do something between 0-2 and not the rest and...
Ok, so you are getting continuity at the leaf switch, but not at the PCB ? If so, the wires are the problem (which would be the first suspect...
Ok, if the reading was with wires desoldered then you have an open FG coil. The 2 most likely causes are the wires themselves (given what you say...
@Knife The kit is ok, as it is the voltage rating of the new capacitors. They operate at 1.35V, so the 2.5V rating offers more than enough...
If the FG coil reads in the mega ohms, then it's open and that is what is causing your high speed and trimpot not doing anything. Even if you...
1. Does the motor still run at high speed/trimmer pot not doing anything ? 2. Between FG points on the motor or on the PCB ? The reading is in...
Yes, C607 is the 47μF SMD one. In terms of size, there is space for a taller one, but the diameter should be the same as original. You can even...
Ok, in regard to pressing the tape as suspected that is an indication the pinch roller is the problem. The tape itself will stay at an angle if...
Where do you press on the cassette to fix it ? Please put a picture for reference. I listened once again to your recording. First of all, the...
I'm afraid it is normal. It's caused by the head picking up the flywheel's rotating magnetic field. User MagneticBlood has described this issue on...
It is perfectly normal for the noise floor to change, as the Dolby NR will also lower the noise of the amplifiers. The amplifiers themselves have...
In theory you may be ok using the original one. In practice the original one will output a much higher voltage with no load. And this is important...
For reference I am attaching 2 pictures with the 2 capacitors that need to be replaced in case unit was powered with reversed polarity. I also...
Ok, you have the SMD board so you can forget about the hybrid modules as you don't have them (they're built with discrete transistors directly on...
You say your D6C is a later one: is it the one with SMD PCB or the one with through hole PCB ? The ones with through hole PCB (which are the vast...
Clearly replace the roller, as it's readily available at https://fixyouraudio.com/product/sony-wm-d6c-pinch-roller/ and the price is peanuts...
You need to check the PCB throroughly and see why there is continuity between those 2 point, because it shouldn't be like that. Tape speed very...
Ok, so let's take it one step at a time. The entire circuit is ground switched: the 3V is constantly connected, while the leaf switches connect or...
Separate names with a comma.
