Hey there, I have a 501 that I've been using for a good while now, the only problem I've ran into recently is that the door won't open, everything else works perfectly but it's just the door. When I press eject, the motors inside try to open the door up but seems like the belt inside snapped and it's not opening. The motor spins up 2 times, seems like it's trying to open and close in a single action. I haven't opened it up yet but this is the basic diagnostics I'll go with for now. Do you have any place that I can buy just the belt and is it possible to even replace them?
Hello! I have the same 501, and the problem is that the playback stops after a few seconds during normal playback. The playback goes normally in the other direction. I just realized that there is a panel where the motor is, and behind it there is another one with the tape selection switches, if I press it a little then the playback starts. Do you think it might be a panel or cable problem? Thank you in advance for your reply.
Check the pinch rollers as they can cause this if its playing in one direction and not the other - tape in switch would not cause this in only one direction

Check the pinch rollers first as they tend to crumble on these decks and wont turn

its gear driven for the door, the doors can jam try to prise it open from the top with a flat blade edge whilst its trying to open.
