The doors where the cassettes go will not open on the Fisher CR-W46
double cassette deck I borrowed. The unit has not been used for a
while and when I put the cassette in it would not play and when I tried
to eject it it would not eject. Same in both in both decks. Is there
any way to get the tapes out? Thanks

open up the casing and look for the large metal flywheel (s) behind
the deck mechs. gently rotate a couple of turns (note: do not force)
and this should release the powered mechanism allowing ejection. Now
replace the rubber belts which sound as if they've stretched and
caused this situation in the first place.
