Smashing job :-D the holder is a nice touch. Quite a neat thin tuner, nothing much to go wrong, that's good :-D I replaced the 2032 in my mates laptop, but there was no holder and it was hardwired, plus it was hidden/inaccessable so the whole thing had to be stripped, some manufacturers want a slap lol.
Oh thise were sold under "Universum" brand in Germany. Had one of these. Someone was in there before, the cover of the tuner is missing. Those inductors can rattle loose, common failure I guess. Also I got rid of the battery problem by putting in 2 wires with plug and connecting it to a AA size 2Ah Lithium battery. That was like 25 years ago. Still going today without battery change.
I was referring to using 2 AA lithium cells, but a button cell is just as good. Even a solder in cell would be fine, but I didn't have one, and did have a holder and CR2023.
Yes I have done supercap replacements. You CAN use a battery in place of the cap, but you need to install a diode to prevent the circuit from applying a charge voltage as that would destroy a battery.
Yup, a 2 cell A battery with a few lithium AA batteries and it will last a lifetime. Even alkaline cells will last 10 years or more, but a pait of AA lithium cells will probably be good for 25 or more years.

Second ribbon-cable clip from the right is loose. Better go fix that! Hehe.
4:04 thought the battery caught fire lol, right when you said good as new
I had an LXI CD player and it was manufactured by Goldstar.
Great job again!!! :D

I do like the old school tuners. This tuner kind of looks like the Sherwood brand. The plethora of chrome buttons looks similar.
M sure this was sold under many brands. Was made by Sanyo, and they did a fair bit of OEM work.
lithium batteries last a lot more than 2 AA batteries. and they don't leak, unlike their AA counterparts. nice repair :)

It is a pleasant surprise to find out you're in the GVR. Where's your shop?
I work from home when I feel like doing this work.
I've done that in all my Yamaha receivers over the years their memory caps get leaky
I think my Yamaha receiver's memory cap needs replacing.
Common problem with lots of components using supercapacitors to power the memory.

Never thought of using AA Batteries ,
Same with PCs or else your PC will fail Thumbs UP

Sanyo? That's a Sherwood clone.
