Thanks Great vid, my belt had stretched and fallen off so wasn't sure which way it went on (Sony wm ex-36) works fine now and the auto reverse which wasn't working also works perfectly. top man
Sony's specs say ±15 Hz at 3000 Hz. As for irregularity, I could not find anything in the service manual, but 0.5% is a decent result for a portable device. Thanks for the video! BTW, the measuring tape should have the test signal recorded in the middle of the tape, because tape difference at the beginning or at the end of the tape can be as much as 1.5% different. Lazy people from eBay usually only record several minutes at the very beginning of the tape.
Thanks so much for taking the time to do do this it's very generous of you to share your experience and knowledge,I've learned a lot,I've been looking for a decent used Walkman but have been worried about serviceability and wanted one with good speed stability do the capacitors seem to last well in Sonys?
I turned on the rewind on my Wm-ex110 and the belt has moved away from the mechanism. After I adjusted the belt and closed the lid, the belt began to move away again during the rewind. Need to change Belt to a new one or something else could break?
great video! gonna try the twisting:) and do you know why does my walkman get a higher pitch for few seconds and then goes to normal? i tried to clean the speed potentiometer but no success
Can anyone tell me the size of the belt used here. The drive looks very similar to my FX28 but I can't find any direct replacement parts nor is the size even listen in the service manual. Thanks.
Interesting video, thanks. I just bought a faulty WM-EX610 from ebay, and I've ordered the replacement belt already. Two questions please. First, the hold button, does it just pop off to allow me to remove the cover (after removing the screws)? Second, the top and bottom covers of my EX610 are slightly different colours. Are yours the same colour? I thnk mine might be a frankenwalkman. I will have a video to go on TH-cam about it, but probably not until the belt arrives in 1-2 weeks. Thanks.
hey someone wants to sell me one of the wm ex Walkman. he says it reminds forward and backward. but he has no cassette to test. do you think it work perfectly if rewind works?
Yeah more or less the same with most portables except for the quartzlocked those are constant at 2999 for mine ,would have taken too much time for 1 hz ,and 0.12 wow and flutter. Sony DD22
Call Amanda about the laptop
Don’t forget to call Amanda. About her laptop. You’re welcome.
Dude, you saved my WM-FX101 beloved walkman with this twisting-rubber thing!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks

Getting the residu of the old belt from under the motor rotor made a huge difference

Thank you a lot for this video. I’ve been wanting to fix my dad’s WM-ex102 and this helped a lot.

Hi, I have a Sony Walkman WM-102 that needs a belt replacement. Do you know of any videos out there that would guide me on how to change the belt?
it's very easy, the biggest problem is finding the girdle. Do you know the length of the sash?
5:14 There's a cassette tape running inside? Or just plug and play with empty device to get the measurement? Thanks from Seoul, South Korea.
Yes, there is a cassette with 3 kHz test tone running inside.

Hello
Tanks for learning can you help me to install to belt for cassette player fujitsu ten limited 86260
Why no one writes the size of the belts???

Great tip about flipping the belt. Thanks 😁
So did you remember to call Amanda about her laptop?
Hello
Thanks for your videos.
Can you help and send me a link where to buy a good quality belt for Sony WM FX403.
Thanks very much
There aren't really any lol. I just buy the ones on ebay and try to make them work by flipping them and stuff.
I was gonna buy some new rubber belts but used a rubber band instead and the Walkman works great.
Where to download the software wow & flutter meter?
Check my newest video. I have it linked below
Where can I regulate the motor speed?
Claudio Dean it’s shown in the video
Yeah more or less the same with most portables except for the quartzlocked those are constant at 2999 for mine ,would have taken too much time for 1 hz ,and 0.12 wow and flutter.
Sony DD22
Want belt only
Lots of mumbling and ohs and ums. Take notes prior and rehearse. Your message will come across more smoothly.
I don't think so!
This Walkman is old type mummy
