If I call them for T/A on this problem when we cannot reproduce it, they
usually tell us to replace the reel clutch. They dont come back after
replacing the clutch so I assumed that the problem was solved. When I told
them that I had a unit that consistantly left the tape out on eject, and
that using a transparent dummy cassette, that I could see that the tension
band was locking the supply reel, they said I have to replace the mechanical
chassis assembly. It was a lot easier to just glue in a stop for the band
and a couple of other servicers have told me that the stop solved the
problem for them.
