Hello guys. I wanted to adjust the speed out of my boombox's motor. Unfortunatley the classic way with with turning on the little screw behind the motor dosent work. It only stops the motor from spinning when I try to put a screwdriver in. Any help on adjusting the motor speed?
Sharp WQ T351 speed motor adjustment.

It might have a speed control mounted on a nearby board , you have to trace the wires from the motor back to see if the lead to a control pot . I can't guarantee that's the case but I've seen these on many boomboxes.
That motor has two holes , have you tried the other one?.
The screwdriver must be tiny sometimes they dont even do anything because you actually need a smaller screwdriver.

I didnt try the middle one. But the other one only stops the motor instead of adjusting the speed. I will try on the middle one.JVC Floyd said:
Nope. Its not the middle either. So I was thinking of swapping up the motor with a Fisher Sannyo ones I have laying around.JVC Floyd said:
Pretty sure that system employs an external speed adjustment, on a pcb somewhere. Inserting screwdriver into the hole might short internal components & damage motor. It’s probably why motor stopped when you inserted the driver, you created a short circuit.
