How to fix a car cassette adapter that keeps being ejected in the easiest way
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 ноя 2020
- My Elook car cassette adapter kept being ejected from my cassette player immediately after inserting it. I found out that if I removed the small rubber wheel in the cassette adapter that the adapter would play my songs from my MP3 player. If you are having trouble with your adapter being ejected try removing the wheel as shown in the video.
The little toolset I use to work on my electronics was a great purchase, I have used it to repair about half a dozen items this year and to break one or two beyond repair. amzn.to/2TJETnW ORIA Precision Screwdriver Kit, 76 in 1 with 56 Bits Repair Tool Kit for Cellphone, Game Console, Tablet and Other Devices, Blue

![How to Fix Constantly Ejecting Cassette Adapter | Any Adapter [Read Description]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8DQQdsPOnUE/mqdefault.jpg)
Thanks for taking the time to make the vid. Appreciate it saved me from buying a new one.
Ryan thanks for letting me know it worked. I really appreciate it. Don't forget to check out my other videos I have over 1100 and add at least one every week for 15 years.
Before these adapters, we had to chisel podcasts onto stone tablets. They were very heavy if you wanted to listen to a long show. One ox wasn’t enough, you would need two ,to pull the cart for a long show.
Oxen? You had Oxen? We were not so lucky. We used unionized monkeys to pull our tablets over a trail of bananas that helped slide them. They always lay the good side of the tablet down and got it covered in bananas and made it hard to use.
Many devices just come with unnecessary parts ... I remember when i used to work on my car back in my college days, when i was done i always ended up with a handful of extra nuts and bolts ... And the car ran just fine, maybe even better!😁😁😁 grt video Robb.. TC 😊😊
Hey Alex I still sometimes end up with extra parts left over. :)
Haha ... 😂😂😂😷
I can finally listen to music in my 04 Buick thanks a bunch!
Ha! 👍
Thanks Robb, really a well done tutorial and I think Oria tool kit is a good look also. I recently purchased one of those Bluetooth devices and it got stuck day one of placing the cassette into the player in my car. I came by your video searching for a way to get unstuck, I'll search your previous your videos a see what I come up with...
Hey thanks a lot for watching the video and leaving a nice comment. I appreciate that.
Some cassette players will refuse to play unless they detect the proper tension and movement of a cassette, so I assume what those gears are for. The gears are probably not needed for most car players. Interesting (and helpful) video, thanks!
hey, thanks a lot for your helpful comment. much appreciated. 😎👌
Yeah unfortunately my 96 Cadillac needs the gear but yet it still ejects. I was psyched until I tried to use the adapter after trying to fix it. It ejects both with and without that stupid gear so now i'm stuck trying to clean it or finding another solution.
thank you man now i can bump in peace again!
Hey thanks for watching the video and leaving a nice comment much appreciated
I'm mildly surprised, removing the little wheel actually worked for me. Brand new adapter would not stay in my cassette player. FM radio adapter suffered too much interference. Removed the little wheel, working great so far.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. Removing the wheel worked great in my new adapter! The Bluetooth /FM quality lacka
Interesting stuff, Robb. I wonder why the manufacturer of the adapter even bothers to put in the multiple gears, etc. if the device will work fine without them. ~ Should you put a little bit of glue (hot melt) around where the wire goes into the cassette, to strengthen that point so the wire doesn't get too much flexing / weakening?
I like your glue idea. I am going to take all of the gears out and see what happens next.
@@RobbsHomemadeLife Great. Please either do a follow-up video about the device or send me another comment. Thanks.
Reminds me of the FM converter in my old truck.
I did that and mine is still ejecting. It says "clean tape" then tries to play one way then the other then ejects the adapter saying "check tape".
I had this issue as well I went and purchased another one from dollar general and tried the same method and works just fine not sure if you figured it out but a new tape worked for me not sure why tho hope this helps
The more modern '80s and '90s cassette players had auto rewind functions that would detect that the tape had stopped moving. The wheel is to simulate the tape moving. Removing it means it won't work in auto rewind systems, because the system will think it's out of tape.
Brad, thanks for your help.
I might have something more going on. I took mine out and it's still doing it. Bought a brand new one, took it out again, and its STILL doing it. I'm wondering if it's my player...
I’m having the same problem
Trying this on my 04 maxima i removed every wheel and nothing worked i have tried everything
Mine still ejects. It stays in a few seconds longer now but still ejects. Onn brand
My cassette adapter keeps making an annoying squeaking sound whenever I put it in the player. I have to insert it in over and over and sometimes, it'll stop. Is this rubber wheel in the video the same culprit?
It's hard to say for sure but it sure sounds like that's the problem.
I was surprised by how little is in the cassette.
Well all it needs is the fake tape head to send signals to the head unit and a cassette case to keep it aligned really. Some head units might have additional sensors or whatnot to prevent problems and allow for tape reverse etc so the extra gubbins might be useful for those.
Hey Paul, I know, just the tape head and the useless wheels. If I turn the volume way down I can hear them rotating but who plays music low in a car,LOL
Didn't work, I put my cassette in and plays for a sec then it tries on the other side finally just spit it out.
LMFAO this actually fixed it. thank you
hey, I was hoping this would help somebody, not many people besides myself still using cassette players in the car. 😎
@@RobbsHomemadeLife i bought a bluetooth one this evening for 11 bucks and out of the box it kept popping out. i figured there had to be a fix. stumbled across yours and it did the trick. Thanks again. For anyone curious, i have a 2000 Honda Accord LX.
That is helpful info, thanks Andrew!
Mine keeps auto flipping
COME ON...IS THERE NOT A MANUFACTURER OUT THERE WHO BUILDS A CASSETTE ADAPTOR WHERE YOU DONT HAVE TO REMOVE THE LITTLE WHEEL INSIDE ???
THERE MUST BE....AND ONE THAT IS BETTER THAN CHEAP PLASTIC ???
DOES NOT WORK!
Sorry to hear that.
I took the wheel out and it still ejected
Jesse sorry to hear that.
