I put a cassette into the tape deck; an iPod accessible tape. It was rejected but the tape deck spindles keep spinning even with the car off.

This may still be with the wiring. One the radio may be tapped directly to the battery bypassing the ignition key or there is exposed wires that may have made contact with a contact that is directly connected to the battery. That may be the reason why there is still power, as for the spindles moving you may want to take out the radio and opening it out, normally the motor stops not by sensors but by mechanical pieces moving. There may be mechanical parts or arms that may have come loose or loose wires. Open the top of the radio and observe it as you put in the deck, while it is playing and after just to see where the issue is.

How do I fix my car cassette player that keeps on trying to reject with no tape in it?

Replace it with an after market stereo. It is an internal problem. Not worth fixing, even if you know about electronics.

How to connect ipod

unless there is a specific jack to connect it you cant unless it has a tape deck then you can use a wired cassette adapter for it..most newer radios are set where you can use the celphone hands free and you can program the phone to send its internal music through the bluetooth hookup.

Cassette adapter for toyota harrier

sounds to me like your tape belt in the other motor has broke ,the drive for the tape deck has a rubber band putting it crudely and these belts are a special rubber ,it should be a easy repair but make sure you get the right size rubber band but they must be made for a tape deck and not one from office draw

E 10 tape deck error/ tapes keep spitting out

The radio checks to make sure the drive capstan is turning - if not, gives the E10 error. Either the drive belt in the radio is slipping or the drive wheel in the adapter is sticking. If it does it with a real cassette, then it's probably the drive belt. If not, you can try to figure out why the wheel in the adapter is not turning freely.

I put a tape in and it keeps flipping sides without playing and pops out and says Error. It even does it with a CD-Cassette Adapter. Before the Cln came up and I pressed on the eject button and that...

Cassette decks have sensors on the reels which tells the deck when the tape is at the end. When the reel stops the deck switches the direction of the tape and sometimes the position of the head(depending on the deck design). Most common problem is the tape is hard to turn, or the deck won't turn it ( deck thinks it's at the end, click, still won't turn, click, won't turn, click) you should fast forward and/or rewind your tapes from start to finish once in a while to keep them lined up(narrow spool/less friction), you shouldn't have to but it works. BUT,...your problem sounds like a slipping or broken belt/or dirt causing the problem. Take the deck out to have a look and clean the capstans(rubber rollers)belts,heads with alcohol and a Q-tip while your at it. Dirt's usually the main culprit and if you do have some other problem, cleaning it is always a win/win (It will also sound better clean)

My tape cassete keeps opening and closing while

The switch inside the tape player needs to be cleaned or replaced. The dealers send out all radois to a repair shop that is an authorized repair facility to perform this type of work. Shop mechanics do not repair radios or tape decks at any dealer I know of. It may be far less to replace your ciurrent unit with an aftermarket one unless you want to keep your factory unit instead. Many top shelf radios are out there and most can be found at stores like Best Buy and even Car Max these days

Getting an ERR8 code on the factory tape deck. Holding EJECT for 5 seconds isn't helping. There is an iPod conversion cassette (no actual tape) stuck in there. Is there a manual release somewhere?

No, there isn't. The only way I know to remove a cassette when the 'Eject' function doesn't operate, is to remove the audio unit & disassemble it to the point you can access & manually turn the gear(s) of the 'eject' mechanism. In the process, you could possibly discover where/what the problem is and fix it.

2002 Chevy Malibu Cassette Player will not work

Since no repair parts or repair manuals are made available to the consumer by GM then you must remove the deck from the dash and send it in for repair at a factory approved repair center.
