Einleitung

In this guide, we will go into detail about how to disassemble the Sony TC-FX170 player and replace the worn belt within the player.

A worn belt that is not replaced with time will cause problems within the device such as issues rewinding, pausing, or fast-forwarding your video content.

Before beginning, make sure the device is shut down completely and disconnected from a power outlet.

    • Orient the motor such that the solder joints hang over the rear of the cassette mechanism, hold the replacement belt back with tweezers and slide the motor back into place on top of it. Slowly slide the belt back toward the motor, aligning the belt to the motor's spindle.
