Sweetbeats, I just meant reading the voltage should be simple. I believe you that this can get very complex very fast so I will certainly throw in the towel if I get to a point where I simply cannot go on. Also, I realize you are taking your time to offer free help to a stranger, and I am extremely appreciative (this goes for both of you). Please, if at any point you do not have time to spare and must abandon the thread, I fully understand.
I took the readings. On the supply motor, I saw the same bundle consisting of a red, yellow, orange and brown wire coming out of the motor as on the takeup motor. I measured the voltage across the orange and red wires on both sides. Here's the results:
Supply Motor: 106v REW
63v PLAY
Takeup Motor: 105v FF
75v PLAY
The service manual shows that the motors should be at these voltages:
Supply Motor: 100v REW
65v PLAY
Takeup Motor: 100v FF
80v PLAY
So, assuming I took the readings correctly, these seem pretty decent. What do you think?
