[DML] Re: craig W460 cassette mechanism

["Sean" <sweitzel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the idea. The drive belt is in fine condition. The problem
is that nothing will cause the motor to activate. There's no
mechanical movement and the unit will not inject a tape. I did take
the motor out of circuit and apply power and it does spin, so it's
something logic based. Oh well. The owner of this car told me he's not
worried about tape operation. I went ahead and fixed the flex cable on
the display and reassembled the unit for AM/FM operation only. 

Thanks for all the replies. Does anyone want a PDF of the service manual?
