Clutch does need some grease on the middle, where there's friction between it and the middle plastic hub. If you want a small drop of oil can...
Marked the clutch on the attached picture. However can't know if this is actually the problem. If you don't have a good feel of what a normal...
Tape guide, if the lock paint is original leave alone. Tape guide is fixed, not related to the head bridge and not the cause of your problem. In...
Fact roller is wobbly can indicate the roller itself is eccentric. While this will affect the W&F, it's probably not the cause of your problem....
Most are around 30 AWG, but some walkmans use more than 1 gauage (like thicker for power lines). But there's another factor: how thick is the...
The playing too fast is likely caused by a mechanical problem, not by motor running too fast, hence why adjusting the speed doesn't solve the...
There are some pictures with the camgears here: https://stereo2go.com/forums/threads/sony-dd9-cracked-gear-help.7231/#post-55496 Also attached a...
Remember your post from 2021. The unfortunate part is that cracked camgear, not aware of anyone having it made in the meantime. Big issue is...

Do keep in mind the dot on the PCB silkscreen is the + not the - side on AIWAs. Not familiar with this particular model, but another thing to note...
Sound on R is faint and low only at full setting, but fine otherwise ? If so would measure the potentiometer resistance during a full rotation....
I presume the walkman does work only with a remote based on your description. If that is the case, it means IC701 is working fine and problem is...
Yes, it's normal to slightly change (a couple of mV) nothing to adjust there. Varies, some are close to the spec (315-320mV), some are way off...
