Default Re: Grundig TK20 and Truvox R82. Help Required Please.

Well, I don't know why but after replacing two capacitors it now seems to be running at the proper speed! I also put a drop of machine oil on some of the braking mechanism levers in case that was binding at all, so maybe that did the trick, who knows? Hopefully it will continue to run at the correct speed now. The caps I replaced, one was 8uF which may be C25 which was in the power section, the other was 0.1uF which was across the terminals of the pause switch, which isn't shown on the circuit diagram. I only wish I knew which of the things I did fixed it!
