Hi, this is my first post and it is a pleasure to be on this forum. I have Realistic SCR8 I replaced the belts on the tape deck and now I am having the common autostop problem in which the deck keeps stopping. I heard it could be repair of disabled with jb weld. If anyone has any info please let me know. Thanks.

When you depress play watch to see if heads go up if not then yes there is a broken piece inside, most common with these :sad: JB Weld is used to repair but deck must be taken apart to get to it :thumbsdown: A couple members have repaired. I had an older member ..Bashngu who is not frequently on.... repair mine but it cost $80 :-O

I messed around with it and the deck seems to be working now. I think a gear may have been is misaligned or maybe it just needed to work its kinks out seeing as it hasn't been used in who knows how long. Thanks for the tip and hopefully I wont have any more problems with it.
