Hi,



I recently found this deck in a skip and after a belt change ti works well. However, someone has been there before me and dismantled the leverages/ linkages which activate the rec-pb mode slider switch. I have one piece which was just randomly screwed onto the mech when I found it (see final pic) and I think this is the main problem - I need to reattach it properly.

There is a hooked linkage like that, same holes and angles in the exploded view of the TC FX330 - if nothing emerged by Sunday I'll scan it in

I have a TC-FX2 deck. Its mechanism is also "logic" driven, but is not DC servo controlled. The front looks quite different.

I can photograph the insides if you think it might help.

Yup, someone is also messing about. BTW the image came from this page.

Thanks to Adrian and Franc. I now have a rough idea from the rusian pic as to where the bracket which links the rec-pb switches to the deck itself should go. The firefox translator rmade a pretty good job of the site, it was a guy who modded his TC-FX220 and made a 'media centre'.

I'm not sure if there is a piece missing where that bracket connects, will try it now and see. I may yet take you up on your kind offer of a pic, Franc, if it does not work out....

Many thanks. this is the same mech. couldn't find a number though. I now have it assembled after a fashion, there is a brass spacer missing from mine where the bracket meets the deck mech, but using a slightly longer screw seemed to do it. I will test it a whiole and see.

thanks again for taking the time to scan that, much appreciated!
