Hi Colin, your posting is not the best composition I've seen! No grammar or punctuation at all making it difficult to follow. Not the best choice of type font either and why bold?

Notwithstanding all that, was your friend's unit connected with the same cable as tried with yours? I'm suspecting a cable issue, but if the other 3500 worked with the same cable then that can't be the source of the no sound problem.

When you say "everything works" but the sound ouput do you mean the the tape drive is ok and the cassette spools turn etc?

I suspect the din Cable as well or the connection at the Tape player end. Does it seem to record?

peter   . i used different leads, but ive checked both ends of cable and all looks well.

might it be possible for the problem beocord 3500 cable  to have a break somewhere.

to replace the cable means i will have to take out the complete inside from frame.

thanks colin.
