    Hi,
    i have 2 Walkman with the same problem. A WM-EX500 and a EX505 (I think the difference is only Dolby)
    I bought both from Ebay.
    The 505 had corrosion from a leaking battery, the 500 just a little bit.
    Both are cleaned, but they don´t turn on.
    1,5V is OK, 2,5V is OK. The Tape Switches are bridged, Hold is off.
    I can´t see any damages or corrosion from leaking caps.
    A connected remote gets power too, at least the hold is flashing if i switch it on(on the remote).

    Is there a known Issue/Problem that i can check?

    Regards M. (Michael)

    Damn, wrong Forum, can someone put this into Walkman?

    Hi @Emmpunkt ,
    Nice purchase!
    You might want to post in the Walkman section in the future.
    There are a few common problem threads that might help over there.
    Regards,
    Emiel
