Schaub Lorenz 5001 need help
Afternoon all,
I have a couple of 5001 music centres, 1 works fine, the other one needs some work. I have gone through the basics, fixed the lack of illumination (blown fuse) checked all the relays and cleaned the connections. Sorted the seized tuning capacitors etc. I now have the radio working, on AM at least. The tape player doesn't play. When I switch the tape unit on, it lights up and the large wheel on the left (viewed from the front) is spinning happily. I have cleaned all the leaf contacts that I can see. The selector is very stiff to turn compared to my working set. What would be the best thing to check next ? Help would be much appreciated. Thanks |

Re: Schaub Lorenz 5001 need help
Have a look at this:
https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...d.php?t=106148 You'll even find a link for a download of the full service-manual in post #11. Be carefull when downloading the manual; select the right download-button or you may have your computer infected with nasties. The right button is the larger blue squareish button that has a white cloud with a blue arrow pointing in. Good luck fixing this lot rgds, /Torben |
