Hubby bought a tape player at the flea market today and was so excited to hook it up and try it out. The eject button wouldn't work. He was so irritated. I told him about your video, but he found something else that included several steps, replacing parts, etc. He walked away from it. Now he's fallen asleep, and I snuck it away and fixed it by following your video. Whether it actually works is another story, but at least now he can put a tape in and find out. Thanks!
O my God, I was in a big trouble on a tape deck of KENẀOOD stereo cassette deck, model No. KX-51B And I turnd that belt as you said, and automatically worked, Glad to see your video, sending love to you frome Ethiopia 🇪🇹. Thank you very much Sir.🥰🥰
Outstanding video, thank you. My JVC has an additional latch next to that wheel that I needed to shift clockwise, too. Your video made it easy to find. The tape deck still doesn't open unless I nudge that arm manually, so it'll need to be replaced, unfortunately. At least I could find the problem and got my old cassette tape out.
Oh! Thanks a lot! It just happened to me today, and I was kind of desesperated about it, because the casset stuck in it is unique, and I cannot loose it. I really appreciate your video, and it's clearly explained. I'll try it.
If it happens one time it will happen again but It worked. We haven't nothing to lose. I Had two decks with the same issue. The problem is that I forced the door on the first one and now I have to fix the door mechanism. It is a JVC in mint condition but now it is not. Then I found this video. I was also told by a guy about this trick but I had to see the video to understand what he was saying. Watching the video I fixed the Pioneer one and that's good news. I don't know when this happens again but I am OK at the moment. What we need is good new decks. These are ageing.
I watched a video recently where modern decks were measured against some of these old relics, and sadly the specs just didn't compete. In general, those old decks were solidly built. I know my old Aiwa was.
So I have to take apart my Panasonic boom box to fix the deck that's not working? Sigh. I'll have to try it. I'm afraid the working deck will fail next. Thanks for the lesson!

Wife of the year right here!
Can’t believe this actually worked. So simple yet I’d never have known to do that. Thank you so much!
Glad it helped!

Worked like a charm on my Onkyo. Thank You!

THANK YOU for posting this! So helpful! I am so relieved to have my tape deck working again, and with such a simple fix.
I have the same problem. Ty. Going to try it soon

Cool. This stuck door on my tascam 112 has been driving me crazy so I will try this tip, thanks.

Oh my goodness! This worked.
As a follow up this was a temporary fix but replacing the belt made it a permanent fix.
I lubricated my motors while I was in there.
Worked like a charm! Thanks 🙏🏽
You're welcome!
Thank you so much sir.. very helpful for me.. 🙏
don't have this deck, but having similar problem on my JVC. I'll try it Spuzzy. Thanks!
Spuzzy, thx for the comment like.....did that guy John say WHY this happens?? Just wondering.
No, he did not. But apparently it's a common enough problem.
@@StockDude Tape decks are ageing
Love thee old aiwas!
When I took it to John of Renton for calibration, he told me my Aiwa was a top-notch player.
Thank you!
