Unfortunately today it started up again on it's own a few times then permanently...then it started playing hi-speed-dubbing speed with no response...
I think...that I now have two fully functioning machines. The constant running turned out to be the governor chip - I replaced this with a new one...
I think I've cured the constant running motor. I replaced the transistors again but this didn't work - in fact one new one I put in did funny...
It is a fuse - perfect explanation for the battery not functioning...but it's not open circuit?
Had another look at the 700 this evening, I think the motor is fine but it may be the focus coil - need to read up on how to check this... After...
I downloaded the workshop manual and opened up the offending SL-XP300 - inside it looked perfect - little used. Why is it that none of the...
Exactly what mine does / did. Like yours it semi-cured itself but then got worse - now it runs all the time. I've studied the circuit diagram for...
Thanks Boodokhan, I'll definitely give that a go before swapping components over.
That’s great - good news!
It might be the transistors which switch the mute circuit - it’s a long shot. I’ve ordered new ones and will swap them in this week...
On mine the issue was to do with the mute circuit malfunctioning
I’m having this issue with my Aiwa HS-PX310 - when I find out why I’ll let you know. I’ve ordered new transistors as these tell the motor to run...
Work continues to try and sort out the continual running motor issue. Everything else works fine and you would have thought it would be easy to...
I’ve dealt with this about 10 times in the last few days but I can’t remember exactly what causes it. I think it’s mechanical - the white plastic...
I now have two machines working, one very reliably but when it gets to the end of the tape it doesn't turn over. The second works well but the...
I think they’re still worth having though, good quality and any period Aiwa in ear headphones are difficult to get hold of. Not really sure why...
The remote doesn’t work with these on the 310 - except for the volume of course.
...well I've been listening to this machine for 30 minutes now - a bit of crackling every-so-oftern but it's still going. I've been using NiMH...
I agree Tant caps are meant to be reliable, but do claim a life of around 20 years - though not much to go wrong with them. You shall have an...
Thanks Warren, I have wondered about that bit. The way it fizzles and pops before cutting out to me suggests something going out of tolerance. It...
