This model uses a 0ZM mechanism, so things like re-lubrication, bent pinch roller holding pins and bent head bridge are to be expected. They're...
You can find the PCB diagram here: https://www.petervis.com/manuals/sony-wm-d6c/pcb-and-wiring.html It's in black and white, but the traces are...
In regard to the diode I attached a picture. The simplest way I see is remove that jumper wire and add the diode there (it may require enlarging...
If you want protection from both DC in jack and batteries, you will have to cut quite a few traces. In my opinion putting all 4 batteries...
Some speed difference is normal to exist on most autoreverse walkmans, if it's within 30Hz or so would consider it normal. This difference can be...
Lubriplate 105 is a generic grease designed of automotive applications. As far as grease goes, would prefer white lithium grease to this one. For...
@Anthony I would try another cable. Looking at pictures on ebay, the jack itself looks a bit off with sleeves being longer than normal. Not sure...
Yes, the DC-DC converter schematic is flipped horizontally, it's an error in the service manual. This is obvious if you look at the internal...
Rule of thumb is the rating should (ideally) be twice the operating voltage or more. We also have space constraints in most cases. Will take the...
Motor speed is independent of Ve of Q601 and Vcc of CX20084 as long as they're above certain thresholds. So yes MCP1702 + 1N5818 will work fine....
1N5818 will have a forward voltage drop of ~0.2V@150mA, meaning a power dissipation of 37.5mW. Also with NiMH cells 4.8V-0.2V = 4.6V. With the...
Note most of the current flows through the drive transistor Q601 (2SB1063), not through the IC itself. If we assume a current gain of 100 (which...
Belt routing is fine, that's how it should be. And they are turning in opposite directions, the idler reverses the direction. Look at the...
That piece of fabric is a felt pad, part of the clutch. On these series, the clutch is integrated into the takeup reel. To be noted takeup and...
That small white gear connected to the white rod is the detection lever. That's most likely the area where your problem is. The clutch looks...
But there is, you have the following websites which have huge databases with walkmans, recorders, decks: https://walkman.land/...
I think that's a very good idea. After all, if you're interested to find out more info about your units, you should create threads dedicated to...
In regard to the Japanese seller: apart from price, there's another problem: he doesn't seem to re-list many of such items. So it's possible he's...
1. For lubricating alone, you need to remove the back cover and tilt the PCB on the D6/D6C. On TCM-600, TPS-L2, WM-3 you need to remove the small...
