Default Re: Grundig 2280 Locks In Fast Forward

Possibly nowhere, since a scrapper may also have a faulty board but if you have too little experience with real troubleshooting and want to try to repair it without a steep learning curve, you could try to blindly replace all tantalum capacitors (Grundig always seemed to use them in older models, I'm sure they still used them in this one). Maybe someone else knows about other common problems.

Another alternative is to find a late model Philips, they are somewhat more reliable even if a 30 years old machine won't be perfect.
