      Update:

      I exchanged the belt with a one bought to Dillen a few years ago but never used.

      Unfortunately with no complete result : fluctuations while reading are gone but the other defects stay unchanged (see below).

      Any clue?

      Kind regards,

      Yann.

       

      Hello Beoworlders,

      The tape unit of my Beocenter 9000 has problems.

      Reading works on both sides, but with fluctuations.

      The video below shows what happens, using a tork-meter tape (side 2 first, then side 1).

      When recording, the “blank” spool turns but the “recorded” one doesn’t in a first step, then turns fast and the recording stops (see video below).

      Fast forward and rewind does not work at all, nothing moves.

      Could it be the belt (it’s a unit with an unique long belt and 2 screws near the head) or if not what’s your diagnostic?

      I bought a spare belt a few year ago but did not find how to change it, as I did not find how to take the tape unit apart.

      Any help would be highly appreciated.

      Kind regards,

      Yann.
