I have this JVC Mini Stereo model MX-J10 in the shop. Every once in a while, the solenoids in the cassette mechanisms will keep clicking. I removed the cassette mech. and checked for sticky operation, etc. but found nothing. I did change the solenoid driver transistors in case they were intermittantly leaking. Now after it's back together I notice the problem seems to occur when the cassette tape is at the end of travel and attempts to start playing in the reverse direction. The solenoid just keeps clicking and the drive doesn't go into play like it should. Does anyone have experience with repairing this problem? I have already spent more time on it than I should have and will just return unit to customer if I can't go any further on it. When the unit is working, it works perfectly. I can reverse direction play, rewind, FF, etc. all ok. The motor speed is ok too. Just when it decides to act up, the solenoid in one cassette mech. keeps clicking Thanks for any help. -- Gary McCartney McCartney Electronics Guelph Ontario Canada Est. 1984 email: gary (at) number63.ca ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Password: http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?".
