Can't resist looking again. Checked the voltages on pins 1 and 5 (Green wires) to chasis ground. Forward and Reverse read 13V to ground...

I guess it's what happens when you get Wopl'ed ?

Well just looked at the mechanism operation description in the service manual, the direction switching solenoid (green wires) is only...

I really appreciate all of your insights. I found that there is no voltage to the solenoid and I dont have the tools for...

Maybe something wrong with the solenoid. The new EG530AD-2B motors are Chinese knockoffs, they're not as good as the original Mabuchi ones.

The 2F won't work as it's a CW rotation, you need a CCW motor, like a 2B.

Speed changes but not enough I have a 530AD-2B. Ordered a -2F to see if it is any better. Coming from Nam so it will be a while. End of...

These EG530AD motors are used on car decks, so they could get 13 or 14V power supply without issues. Is the speed changing when you...

So, I checked the spring and gave it a little more torque. That might have been part of the problem. I took a cotton swab to the tire...

Thanks to all for the warm welcome! To be clear though, all 3 of my R2R decks are fully functioning now. My project is the Pioneer CT-50R.

The tire should always touch the motor shaft. On long time unused decks this can mark the tire. Is the spring properly mounted ?

Welcome to Phoenix.

I've been rebuilding my collection of vinyl. (Lost in a fire). When I was working in Germany in the 80's I purchased a Pioneer sound...
