I really though it would not be too difficult. I was wrong. I ordered the replacement belts for this D65 Sanyo Plus cassette deck and started dismemberment.
Sigh*
I need a service manual or someone with good directions before I go any further. This is a lot more complicated than I imagined. I’m not afraid to continue but, I need diagrams and or something to look at before I tear this all apart and can’t remember how to get it back together! Lol
Also, looking at it closely I think it will need some different rubber pieces that are not included with the belt kit I have. I will grab a few pictures of what I’m concerned with tomorrow.
Thanks in advance.

Got it downloaded and saved.
Thank you!
I just home from night shift, and I have one more night to go then back on days. When I wake up later I will take pictures of where I am at and try to sort the screws I have removed so far, as you suggested on cardboard.
I make a good bench monkey , I just lack good diagnostic skills...I will get there though.
Thank you again, sir!

Ok. I'm good with mechanical and tools. Still building my electronic side up but I will there. Simple multimeter, 50 mhz oscilloscope, soldering irons, desoldering irons. I want a power supply and an in circuit component tester but, in time.
Below are the pictures of where I am at and what I can see, as well as the belt kit.

No problem with solvents; I have all those on hand anyway.
I will get the pictures of the pinch rollers.
I am printing the manual today so I can have it handy. I know you say I am well on my way but, I feel I am well on my way to a major headache! lol
I stopped at this point because I didn't know if I needed to actually remove the cassette cage entirely or just try to work on it as is with all the wiring still attached.

Thanks, Ric.
I will work on it as I can this week in the evenings after work. I will take my time and use the manual, with your instructions. I think as long as I don't accidentally
break a wire connection somewhere I might be ok! I will take my time and post progress by this weekend.
Cheers!

NOTE: This is not specifically DIYAUDIO related but, it is related to how quickly I will be working on this SANYO D65, so, I hope it's not to far out of bounds.
Below are a few pictures of a riding mower transaxle I had to take apart today, a picture of my wall of tool boxes, and lastly the Sanyo sitting on the bench.
I have to fix the transaxle before I can get to the Sanyo and the wall of tool boxes is just to show that I like tools and fixing stuff. My problem usually lies in putting things back together.....not so much in taking them apart!
