Teac A-21 Stereo Cassette Tape Deck turns un, but...
posted by knuckles on Jun 22, 2007
I recently bought this tape deck for a few bucks without testing it first. It turns on, sort of boots up, but won't play tapes. None of the functions (play, rewind, ffwd, record, pause) affect the tape. It sits lifeless.
I am wondering can I fix this myself? Is it worth buying a manual or taking it to a repair shop? Does anyone have a quick fix?
Thank you.

Wizvery likely that the drive belt has broken. I have fixed a TEAC myself using a large O-Ring from a hardware store (I know I was lucky to find a very close match). Open the unit and find the broken belt and take it to a hardware store to "size up" a replacement. Use the opportunity to oil the gear shafts and clean the rubber pinch roller.
