Sony TCM-S68V Cassette-Corder Belt Replacement

[@chylogurti]

Great video. Had mine since 1995 to record lectures. Still have the cassettes and just need to change the belts now. Not bad....29 years. Respect

Hi Alex, Where did you get your belt replacement? I have a TCM-S64V but it looks identical to the one you are working on but I have not found that model replacement. I am sure there is a generic I can use possibly. Thanks.

Hi, missed your reply, it was an assorted kit from ebay, some thing like this, www.aliexpress.com/item/32991623438.html I'm sure you can find the exact belt for a given model and order it for the best result.

I have a tcm-359v and the two lower belts are missing but I can't remove the motherboard, do you know what I can do?

[@noreoalles]

ive been tinkering on this very model for a while now, if you still havent removed the motherboard, im sorry to tell you that you cant get to the belts without removing it. My Motherboard was held by just a few small screws, so you can try it.

[@EGG2311TC]

@@noreoalles I opened mines too and saw that, however one screw fell into thr space between my couch and the other one is stripped and unremovable

[@jeremyb3514]

I have a TCM-359V (looking almost identical to yours) which has a second belt under the one you replaced. Mine fell down from the wheels for some reason. Do you have any idea how to open up the recorder from the other side to reach this belt? There are two small screws in the inside where you put the cassette but taking them out doesnt seem to help :/

You’re a legend

[@awjaaa]

These have speed adjustment, do they not? Was your speed adjustment in the middle?

[@vasya88]

This model doesn't have the speed adjustment.

Why does mine only have output in the left only? But when I pull out the headphone jack out very slightly both sides have audio. It’s very clean. I’ve tried several pairs of headphones it’s not the phones.

[@vasya88]

probably one channel is dead, maybe in the jack or in the electronics, check the soldering of the jack to the pcb/corrosion/dead traces/ripped wires etc. it works on both channel when you slightly pull it out because the contact of the working channel in the jack bridges both contacts on the plug therefore you get the same channel on both earphones.

[@AVadim]

Me too. It's monophonic recorder and need to use earphones with monophonic jack.

[@AVadim]

@@vasya88 It's have only one channel. :)
