I look forward to more videos from you to pick up new tricks from your previous career =) One suggestion for opening cases would be to use a plastic "spudger" to more gently pry the clips apart. (I prefer the triangle spudger). I am currently restoring a WM-F8 that has some playback noise. It was surprising to see how this later model was so much easier to disassemble and how minimal the circuit board was.
This is great! I just got my first walkman today in the mail but unfortunately it doesnt work. videos like this are great to prepare for my first shot at an at-home repair 😂
Good Video, just bought the same model off of Ebay and wanted to prepare that i may have to fix it myself. You sir, did an excellent Job on showing the details here. Thanks for that
This is cool, I am quite young but I have always had a fascination with fixing old tech like this. Any good place to get old parts such as belts and maybe gears on the internet?
Good video squire, I must admit I did cringe while you were removing the Case but fair play to you because you got the job done, I ‘d definitely suggest looking into getting an iSesamo opening tool along with some plastic picks as you’re less likely to damage the plastics, Please don’t be offended by my comment as it’s meant in a positive way & keep up the good work! 🇬🇧
i was squirming as well ;-) i am not used to these plasticy clicked together walkmans , i prefer something with screws ! but we go there in the end next time i will use the plastic tools
I have a Walkman WM-F46 with AM FM radio that I bought new years ago. I worked about a year ago but I just got it out and it won't play. It unwound the tape some so I guess I'll be searching for belts. @@cassettedeck-walkman-repair
@@enzobomba3941 I used this one webspareparts.com But it can be a bit of a mixed bag regarding quality , some belts are better than others so you may have to have a look on for example eBay as well

Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into those plastics but I normally find them a bit to weak / flexible ?
I have found the triangle spudger can pop clips with little force once you find the optimal angle while sliding it.

Most walkmans are easily serviced , I am sure you do great !
Good fix, it looks very clean and probably not been used much
it really does look very clean and wasnt too bad repairing

I am glad it helped ! You can do this if needed

i just look up what i need on google and order it , most consumable parts (belts) are still readily available from somewhere
René heel goed en wat een geduld moet je hebben leuk filmpje

Was that belt too tight? Zeppelin sounded like it was dragging.
@@Veedthetg i think it is , still not happy with it so i havent given it away yet , trying some other belts first

Great video! :D
@@PercyScribble thank you so much !
can you tell me please the site name where you buy the belts? thanks in advance.
@@enzobomba3941 I used this one
webspareparts.com

@@cassettedeck-walkman-repair thank you very much
Use those plastic iPod opener and works great.
I should really get some 😅
@@cassettedeck-walkman-repair Just bought a Sanyo 5035 from eBay. Was the one I had when I was a teen in the 70s.
I buy my belts from the same supplier 😀
I have had 50/50 good experiences with this supplier , some belts are great , some are bad so test them and see if they work for you
Seems like most of the Walkman’s are pretty much the same.
Yes they are , the basic principles are all the same
