The a/n boombox in my collection won't accept a tape. Perusal by my feeble eyes reveals the pinch roller won't disengage from the pin it pinches the tape against. Enquiry with a very experienced tech elicited that the outfit is probably stuck in play mode, due to a slipping belt. I CAN push the pinch roller down, but it pops back up as soon as I get my finger out. Does a slipping belt require replacement, or could it be due to some part in the transport being faulty? I'm legally blind, and can't fix this myself, so I have to take it in to a shop for repair. I'd like to be able to give them as much info as possible to shoot this trouble, as boombox repair is muchos expensive.
Thank you!
