Picked up a fully working wonderful example of a Dynatron Cavalcade SRX 30B today. Bill of sale, all guarantees and warrantees, lots of paperwork and serviced 3 times.
The radio and turntable are fine (after re-lubing the turntable bearings etc) The Philips N2506 cassette is as dead as a dodo.
I've dismantled and cleaned the 48 year dust away and cannot see anything obviously wrong with the Philips N2506unit... so where do I start??

The unit does not lit up at all. The the connecters are in the appropriate holes, the belts are good but there's just no sign of life from it...

Any ideas??
