scott, i dont know much about your turntable but suggest the following.. 1. is there a service manual for this turntable available in the User and Service manuals section of this site? if so, then im sure you will find the mute switch in the service manual. 2. if there is no manual, i would suggest looking inside the turntable, follow the mechanics

lubrication somewhere inside the cassette deck mechanism. i would suggest getting the service manual and pulling out the mechanism and giving everything a good clean. i used circuit board cleaner/contact cleaner to remove the old grease which had dried and gone quite hard and then relubricated with a new grease... fixed all my problems.

The frets just after being cleaned, came up really well.. they looked horrid and discoloured - i washed them in warm water with some shampoo, i used an old cloth to wipe over the cloth on the frets and remove all the dirt before rinsing them under warm water and allowing them to dry.

Hi everyone, just a few pics of my recently restored Beovox S55's. I got these off ebay a few weeks ago with a Beocenter 5000, the bass surrounds were rotted, tweeters needed new pigtails, the caps in the crossover were on their way out, one cabinet had a large chunk of vaneer on the top right-hand corner missing, half the plugs on the frets were

Liz there are several variations on the 5 pin din lead, usually they will have a male 5 pin din plug on one end which plugs into the AUX input on the front of the unit (next to the mic input). On the other end will either be 2 or 4 RCA sockets OR a headphone socket if you buy a specialty lead. The DIN connection on your 7002 can take sound both in and
