Sony TC-FX4 Cassette - weak left channel recordings
I have an older Sony TC-FX4 cassette deck that plays just fine but will
not record/records weakly on the left channel. The VU's show normal signal coming in during record mode, but when I play back, the left channel is extremely weak -- barely showing up at all on the left meter. In fact, you can't even really hear the sound unless you move the balance to left and crank the volume. At the same time this problem developed, I also had a problem with jackhammering/machine gun sound and other interesting noises if I went directly from record to playback. I tracked that down to the record relay switch and replaced it which took care of that problem. I was hoping it had something to do w/ the left channel not recording but I guess not. Any help would be appreciated. I don't have a schematic but maybe someone could point me in the right direction as far as things to look for that may be causing the problem. Thank you- Willie |
