Long back when dinosaurs roamed the earth I was a bench tech but its been a long time since then. I have acquired a Sony TC-399 open real tape recorder and am about to being work on the transport, cleaning re-lubricating, replacing belts. I am having a problem with the function selector it does not want to select. If you turn the selector to play there is no stop for play or FF, and as soon as you let go it snaps back to stop, the same is true with rewind. Anyone familiar with this beast or the TC-377 which appears to have almost exactly the same transport.
