Sony TC-K611S Repair
I've been trying to resurrect this deck for a while and came across an old thread on here detailing how to get to the belts.
https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...d.php?t=102473 However, much to my annoyance I've done something that the thread explicitly says not to !! "Remove the small plastic clip from the F/R pulley, don't lose it cos its very small" I lost it ! So my question is does anyone have an idea where I could source a replacement ? I've found the part in the service manual which is a start I guess ! (3-669-465-11 Washer (1.5), Stopper) (Ref No 112 on page 35 of the manual) Any suggestions much appreciated ! |

Re: Sony TC-K611S Repair
Did you put the code into a search engine? I just did and found a supplier in the USA. They want $12 USD for it. The postage cost will be the annoying bit. You could try asking at the Tapeheads forum? Alas, finding parts for any c-deck is difficult. I can't think of any model that is easy to get bits for (Revox is probably the best in this regard). Cassette fanciers tend to buy broken machines and cannibalise them.
NB - if you don't get it working and want to sell it on, let me know! |

Re: Sony TC-K611S Repair
Thanks for the reply - might look at the cannibalise option.
If a sony part number was 3-669-465-00 instead of 3-669-465-11 would you think it would be similar? It's on a TC-K570 and serves the same purpose on that deck. |

Re: Sony TC-K611S Repair
You are likely better off asking that at Tapeheads. I would advise caution, simply because it's Sony, and a different letter in a long string can mean radical differences, but I do not have a clue TBH.

Re: Sony TC-K611S Repair
I see it is listed on Amazon from one seller, with both part numbers qouted against it, a high price though.
