Tape Player: Service and Repair
Tape Head and Capstan Cleaning
1. There are 2 pans that need to be cleaned on a tape player, the head and the capstan.
2. Since the head and the capstan can be reached through the tape door, leave the tape player in the vehicle.
Clean the head and the capstan every 50 hours of operation.
3. In order to clean the head and the capstan, use a cotton swab dipped in ordinary rubbing alcohol, or use a cleaning cassette.
4. As an alternate way to clean the head and the capstan, a cleaning cassette kit may be purchased.
Follow the instructions included with the kit in order to clean the tape player.
5. Do not contact the tape head with magnetized tools.
If the head becomes magnetized, the cassette sound quality will be degraded.
6. No service is performed on tapes. Warranty of these tapes is handled by the cassette manufacturer, not by the dealer.
