JVC RC-M70 Boombox Complete Overhaul Before & After

[@lovehometheater]

Years later AFTER Teddy repaired my unit you see here I am happy to report still works well!

[@jkashai]

Take good care of him, I think that equipment was the last one he restored before he died of COVID.

[@lovehometheater]

I’m honored to have my “baby” brought back to life by Teddy! Highly recommend his services- grateful for his craftsmanship!

[@3rdcoastpesca]

your a lucky man ive emailed teddy but i think he is so backlogged

[@teddyhashee]

Thank you Frankie for your compliments on my work! I am glad you are so happy!

[@teddyhashee]

Thank you for your compliments!

[@teddyhashee]

Hi, Gabe. I will reply email, as you said I received too many requesting emails and could not handle them all together. I need a time to work out step by step.

[@fransicorivas3141]

Another genius restoration teddy, don't forget to keep me on your list teddy, when u get an opening. God bless

[@revalid6824]

Got a m70 here in switzerland. Ive been looking for someone who could repair the cassette mechanism & replace the belts but now after probably 2 years of searching & watching these videos i finally feel motivated enough to do this myself! Wish me luck!

[@Buliwyf621]

How it was going? Were you able to fix it?. I have got a m70 here in Hungary, I start to repair last week. I have a brocken parts in the fast forward/backward clutch mechanism, to glue together is not an option so i printed with 3d printer. God bless the inventor of the 3d printer :D

[@RanceHosein11]

Just got one an hour ago and looking for repair videos 😅. This exactly what I need, thank you thank you 🙏🏽 😊

[@TheDood723]

Who else is missing Teddy's videos? Every now and then i check to se if i just missed a notification, sadly there arent any~

[@libertyjusticeforall6754]

Any other way to get a hold of him?

[@libertyjusticeforall6754]

I do that too

[@jkashai]

He died of covid

[@libertyjusticeforall6754]

@jkashai D***** thats screwed up. so sorry.

[@prg333]

Oh how terrible that he died from the Covid virus. Terrible for his family. He was so talented at working on those boom boxes. I never saw anyone do a job like he did.

[@DJCasanovaToronto]

Wow! Just wow! I don't think I've seen one single person who takes the time and care to clean almost everything that can be cleaned! Your repair of the faders was EPIC. I have an M70 that needs some T.L.C. and I only wish that someone in Toronto could do such a thorough restoration like you always do. I doubt I'll find someone even close. I was so glad to hear your voice as well. Hats off to you.... I just subscribed! Teddy... you ARE the master of the ghetto blaster!

[@andyb7339]

Wow great job! Sat here for nearly 3 hours watching the whole video and enjoyed every minute of it. Excellent.

[@paulwindram3967]

Thank you so much for this video, despite its length, its very, very good. I have an M70 sat on my shelf waiting for me to have the courage to face it. This video has given me the reference I need. Out of interest, i didn't hear / catch in the video what great you put in the soft eject system after you fixed it. Keep the videos coming.

[@andrewmajor5837]

Never seen anyone repair faders before!! Good job!!

[@teddyhashee]

Thank you for your compliments on my work! It was a good experience for me to repair the faders.

[@hadibq]

I hope Teddy is doing great. this last videos is 3yrs old. Thanks for all the great videos Teddy!

[@Funkysoulcollectors]

Thank you very much for this amazing job, I am in the process of restoring a JVC RM-70 and it has helped me tremendously!

[@amnril]

Such an epic machine. It’s not the biggest but it’s certainly one of the most iconic. Great job 👏🏻

[@wolfgangkowalik6]

Teddy what you do is just AMAZING!!! I would surrender 10 times already !!!!!

[@Ryan96se]

Nice to hear your voice Teddy. After restoring 3 of these, I know all of the frustrations you felt during every part. Four things I knew for sure before watching. He's going to need to repair the tone board potentiometers, replace deck belts, repair the soft eject system and repair the antennas. :-) It's a typical M70 but what a machine. The only thing that got me was the screw they have hidden in the middle on the stop eject board. That'll keep someone who's never work on these guessing for a bit. Nice work.

[@teddyhashee]

Thank you for your compliments on my work! So you have done the job and we have a common idea how to restore it. Good to know you are out there!

[@jamesstigall]

Incredible! Thank you for sharing!

[@minasaluna8618]

[@teddyhashee]

Thank you. This one is a long film but it includes many tips that can be used when someone try to restore it!

[@mikeymo100]

Wish he spoke more during the resto. I’m about to do mine and I’ve never done one before. Would have been nice to know why he’s doing certain things, what chemicals he uses, etc.

[@johnnysmile01]

This JVC is one of the most wanted GhettoBlasters cassette radio, have seem lots of them, but i never heard one or saw one in real life, but looks nice with the right size too, Yeah Teddy is amazing i wish he lived near me... love to watch all these awesome videos. Those little parts can be a nightmare

[@teddyhashee]

Thank you Johnny for your compliments on my work! It took me a long hour to restore it but it was also fun!

[@goncalodumas]

Hi Teddy, Thanks for an informative video. I used to restore old computers and the method is very similar, of course, one gets better with experience and critical thinking. I learned from another youtube channel, that regular dishwasher contains salt that will corrode metalized surfaces, one good alternative is to use car shampoo. Of course, the toothbrush is a must-have, as is the soft sponge. Best regards

[@LL-vs5ue]

2:14:00 what brand of high viscosity grease you use for the tape door damper? I see that you tried to apply grease few times, as it wasn't opening slow enough... 300000 type grease is the one they use in automotive shops? Thank you Teddy for sharing this great restoration !

[@kevinvan4481]

[@40YearOldDJ]

I have been searching all you videos and the internet for an answer, how do I add LED strips to my boombox. I have found one for this model, but don't know if I can add it to my Panasonic RX-5050. I would like to do this myself, and have some solder experience. Please let me know! Thanks

[@littlescottsworld534]

I have JVC RC-M70, and the right speaker and does not work. I took it to a n electronic repair shop, but the person said the main power supply unit was weak and going out. He cleaned the control switch and it plays a little better. Do you service/restore these radios for the public? I am looking for a complete overhaul. My cassette deck still works and all the radio functions. Thanks--Raoul

[@reqfl]

Hello, thanks for the amazing video, I learned a lot with it. I have an old JVC RC-M70 that needs to be refresh. I have some questions : - can you give me the reference of the belt, the largest one you used seems to be more that the 3mm large original one. I tried to find it on amazon or the web sites, but unsuccessfully... - I'd like to know also what kind of product you use to clean and oil the different axles and the metallic wheel. Alcohol and oil for little mechanics systems ? - You use a pre-recorded cassette to change motor speed in order to have 440Hz. Is this kind of cassette available on Internet ? Thank in advance for your answers (and excuse me if my English isn't perfect !)

I just brought a JVC MC70 boom box in need of a service overhaul. Everything is working but been getting cassette feedback noise

[@burtreynolds2969]

Great video. I just picked up an M70 and I have been digging into it. I replaced the main belt, cleaned all the switches, sliders etc.... Everything seems to be working apart from the power switch that acts up every now and then, but the main issue is the speed of the tape playback. It is playing back slower than it should. Is there a way to adjust the speed of the motor?

[@janzacek9996]

I still have a problem with the vu meter. What should I check? when the radio is on and the battery is turned off, the tuning shows normal..when I switch to cassette and set the stereo level, the knob doesn't even move...it makes me angry..thanks for the advice.

Shark boombox GF-767 I have a problem see if you got help me out. When I switch bands AM FM OR Show wave Tape Deck. It's stays the same just static. I'm going to make it Bluetooth upgrade with a car audio amplifier and speakers. But I don't want to touch the guts. What you think it is the band switch. Or something inside burned out. Let me know if you can.

[@teddyhashee]

First, you want to clean the band switch as well as all sliders, switches with contact cleaner to see how it change the sound quality. Most likely the statics noise came from bad switch connection and most likely you can fix it with contact cleaner.

[@mrquint15]

I've got one of these, and suddenly the right channel got really quiet. It's fine on mono mode, but quiet on stereo. I've cleaned all the switches, sliders and pots but I'm not sure what's next, have you ever run across this issue? Thanks!

[@mrquint15]

Fixed it! If anybody else runs into this, there's some resistors on the front-facing side of the main mother board / amplifier board that are raised up from the board for some reason, in my case just to the right of the main input selector switch. One of mine was shorting out against a header pin on the board causing attenuation.

[@teddyhashee]

Great to hear that you were able to fix the problem. I will check the board where you pointed out and write a memo for the future work! Thanks again!
