Hello

I have recently picked up a Yamaha MT-50 4 track which is making a strange clicking noise when the play button is pressed and the tape plays. It also happens when it's in Rec/Play Pause.

I'd appreciate any help with how I could fix this issue. Everything else seems good apart from cosmetic stuff. It's recording/playing back fine on all tracks, just the weird noise.

I have a video of the issue on youtube that I'm not allowed to post the link to yet. If anyone can help, I could message yoiu the link.

Thanks again
 
Is the clicking sound coming from the mechanism itself or is it coming from the line out? If it's from the mechanism, you probably have a bad belt or something needs to be olied. If it's coming from the line out you should try replacing the caps in the power supply.
