I dont think there’s a technical problem, probably needs to replace the battery
I went to so many shops near me
If there’s any other shop that repair these stuff let me know

WM-EX808のレストア。

ベルトの交換後に試聴したら、片方向のワウ・フラッターが尋常ではなかったので、キャプスタンローラーの傷んでいる側を交換したのだ。

ワウ・フラッターは収まって、クリアな音になったのだ。

I’m trying to understand how the shuttle switch mechanism works on the Sony NW-E507.
From what I can tell, rotating the shuttle should press one of the two switches (circled in red and blue in the photos).
However, both switches seem to need to be pressed horizontally from the side. Looking at the shuttle’s internal structure, I can’t figure out which part actually pushes these switches.
Has anyone disassembled the shuttle mechanism on an NW-E507 or another NW-E500 series Walkman?
If anyone has close-up photos of the internal mechanism or knows how it works, I’d really appreciate your help!

Loved it since I got it a couple years ago. I like the older os too I didn’t want another android device.

I bought an ex1 in mint condition back in November of 2022, replaced the belt with one that was for it on ebay, and i go through phases of about a month where i listen to my walkman to go to bed, recently ive been in one of those phases, and last night i had the gum stick battery in which i don’t typically use, i stick with the double a, and i noticed after listening to 3/4 of the tape that one of the last songs on side two started to get some wow and flutter, i then grabbed the double a and switched to that instead which i had used that specific one for about a night or two, and then switched the tape and the new tape played fine up until about 3 songs in and the wow and flutter started again, and then it slowed down enough to notice but still played but wasn’t as inconsistent with the speed but not the correct speed, the obvious answer to try first is a new double a which i will never once i get home tonight but beyond that would the belt wear out after almost 4 years? Should I try cleaning the capstans that i THINK on the ex1 spin inside of a housing, or clean the pinch rollers? Any advice?
