I would not recommend that Aiwa unless it has the external battery pack, there are other identical 4ZM models that accept AAA batteries. They are...
Yep! If it is an OZM logic mechanism, you have to desolder the solenoids. There should be two of them (if layout is like JX707) , one near the...

I dont suggest trying to stuff the cells in the PB3. Build a new "case", like the old members from stereo2go, with breadboard and copper/stainless...
[ATTACH] I've also sourced Nimhs small enough to fit in the space of Aiwa Lead Acid batteries. I will try to do a tutorial on building a Lead...
Yep! You need to replace all the electrolytic capacitors in them, common problem with this model/series. Open one up and count the caps and sizes...
I am readying a tutorial for through hole recapping (PC202 series). But I have trouble finding another affordable SMD Aiwa with leakage worth...
Yup, basically identical! As you mentioned, capacitors tend to go bad on this model. I would re-cap both. Watch out for broken clutch gear and...
I think sometimes the only choice is to wait for a parts unit too. The 100 series was Sony's first model with an external pack. Unfortunately it...
That is a common Nak Sankyo problem- you need to clean the leaf switches and rebuild the reel motor. Look on tapeheads for instructions. Be...
I also have a BX125, the only difference is that the BX150 has better output pot and counter. The BX125 makes excellent recordings, but there is...
I've gone ahead and looked online for batteries for you. I found the half height NiMH gumsticks from the old Aiwa thread....
At that price for a 3 Head Deck, it's a steal! From what I've read, the late (90s) Teac decks like the V6030S, V8030S are disappointing decks...
A little strange that they won't power it with a bench supply. Maybe send it to one of the Walkman techs here? No need to rush it! You can learn...
I recommend the BX300. Best sound for your buck, and mechanical problems (rebuilding dead motors, bad leaf switches) are relatively easy to fix. I...
Did you get a quote from Galaxy before sending the units off? In not, they should give you an estimate when they get the units before any work is...
http://www.stereo2go.com/topic/problem-with-aiwas-pb-s5-gumstick-battery---replacement-solution.htm The pictures and links are long dead, but...
I'll try to find the old stereo2go thread.
I'd recommend you give fixing your deck a try. Do the basics, check the solder joints, power rails. The B705 is a good deck worth fixing. The...
I'm going to repeat this one more time: Don't mess with Lipos! If you reaaaaally want to build a battery pack yourself, go Nimh.
