I queried the part numbers you provided on partstore.com (not sure if this is a recommended site for purchasing components) and they listed three belts for model # PMC-DR50
- Belt (BR) 304583101 - Belt (FR) 304583201 - Belt 393302001
I could find one of your part numbers on there site's part list. My intent is to replace both belts (if I don't goof it up). Which belts should I order?
Please advise

You may have an issue with the cassette deck on your Sony LBT-D550. The cassette deck uses a belt drive system to operate the cassette mechanism; if belts are broken, it can cause the deck to malfunction.
All the belts may have failed at the same time, but it's also possible that there is another issue causing the problem. Some possible causes of a cassette deck malfunction include:
A problem with the cassette mechanism itself, such as a jammed cassette or worn-out gears.
A problem with the cassette deck's motor, which a malfunctioning capacitor or other components could cause.
A problem with the cassette deck's control board, which a malfunctioning switch or other components could cause.
To determine the cause of the problem, a professional technician should look at the cassette deck.
Hi, there
Since your unit has a CD player, the problem with both the turntable and cassette deck is probably due to the rubber belts that turn both mechanisms losing elasticity or have broken over time (or in the worst case scenario, turned to goo). I don't know your model manufacturer, but turntables often have a clip, or some sort of apparatus, that you can remove to lift the turntable platter up and off. If you can do that, you will be able to see what shape the turntable belt is in. For the cassette deck, more intricate disassembly is required. Replacement belts for both can often be found on eBay or other online sources.I found a video for an ion turntable that might have a similar belt system.
There are thousands of happily outdated cassette players and actually you don't even specify make and model of yours so all I can provide you are these links:
Just measure the diameter of the belts in mm. Then type "Cassette drive belt ??mm" into Google. Belts are not specific to any maker. PS you don't need to be spot on with the mm measurement.
Make a note of how they fit before removing them.
Hi, Flat belt part number is.. 301657001.. BELT (CAPSTAN) and square belt part number is... 302440501.. BELT (FR2) Above said info are taken from TC-WE435 cassette player s/m. Thanks.
The most likely problem is with the belt that goes around the flywheels of the deck. You would need to take the cassette deck out of the unit and check it out to be sure. If the belt has come off or is broken, it needs to be replaced with the same type of belt and then it needs to be put back on in the exact way it is meant to be put on. This is something that may not be very easy for you to do unless you have some experience with this sort of repair. Taking apart a cassette deck can cause more problems with it, if it is not put back together perfectly.
The best solution for you would probably be to take it in to a repair center. If you decide to try it yourself, I am willing to offer help, but I do advise against it if you have no experience with them.
