My original ADF220 from 1986 has developed a malfunction.
I originally assumed it was a belt so got new belts, but it seems not.
It seems to sort of work but the motor has no torque and the LED's all dim a bit when it tries to run.
If it ran on batteries I'd diagnose a flat battery but it doesn't!
Either the PS is faulty or there's something presenting it with an abnormally high load.
I don't really know a lot about cassette decks so are there any obvious places to look for an issue?
Visually the components all look OK and despite the age it's had very little use over the years.
I also have no service manual so if anybody can point me at one I'd be gratetful.
TIA
