[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo sound issue. Capacitors changed op amps are fine.]

The Steve helped me out. turned out to be corrosion on c322 to amp 503 and ground.

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo sound issue. Capacitors changed op amps are fine.]

Yeah Q604 and Q603 are both fluctuating at around the same voltage. between .10v -.16v i measure the bottom left and bottom right legs. nothing constant. is that normal?

Wait what

If anyone can help out I would appreciate it. At q603 and q604 atm. What's the voltage suppose to be at. It's bouncing 5-11v. Guessing corrosion short or open trace maybe damaged via.

Only trace I had issues with was c325. The others looks clean

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

Iv got the spindle to spin the disc. the lens it self isnt moving on the track and isnt reading the disc. the laser is on. two of my consoles did this after recap. what do i need to adjust?

thanks

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

so my recap could have caused the lens to go bad? but its red laser is working? ill try re grease and new lens. if it doesnt work its pot adjust ment. man i feel like im in a hurricane. lol

[Console Repair/Mod Center / disc is spinning clockwise then stops and counter clockwise.]

it wasnt spinning at all. and i removed cap c201 and then re soldered it and the disc started spinning again but then went counter clockwise and clockwise.. maybe this is pot adjustment now or do i have a short? do i need the 4 caps replaced that control cd area?

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

i ended up removing c201 cap and putting it back on. becasue for soeme reason i feel like its the caps.. and now the disc is spinning but it stops and spins the other way then stops and spins normal repeating process asks to set disc. lights on. lens light is on.

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

just powered on lens bouncingup and down again disc slowly spinning then stopping...

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

do you have ohm reading for ab and ac reading for pots?

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

the lens lights up. and the led light lights up. iv tried adjusting pots no luck.

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

pots are working. anybody?

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

i have had it powered and the lens isnt bouncing at all. its functioning the same. no disc spinning. laser has light. run buttons work the same. i had a trace lifted in the power section but i did repair it. ill use my multimeter on the pots.

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: Turbo duo recapped and cd not spinning motors tested and working. help!]

lid up press run (should say to close cover) -OK
lid down press run (light on, laser on, laser moves to switch and back off switch) -ok
open lid when light on (light goes off) close lid
press run again without resetting (same as first time)- open lid light goes off close lid and the light comes back on if done quick. if i wait to close lid, light goes off and i press run and its normal. just doesnt spin disc.

Hello,
my turbo duo was working great. i recapped the entire console and it was working. yesterday it made random clicking noises. i found out the noises were the lens jumping up and down hitting the cd and plastic holder. at this point the cd wouldnt spin. i tried another lens with this board and it was a no go. i tried the lens on another duo board it works. so it has to be the board. maybe those 4 caps are faulty? or do i need a pot adjustment.
i did try adjusting the pots but nothing changed so i put them back to factory setting.
im lost atm and i could use some guidance. laser light is on when i press run. when i press run with the cd door button pressed it doesnt spin. the lens just bounces up and down hitting the cd. right now the console is powered on and all it is doing is periodically having the lens bounce without the run button activated. when i first started my system today the cd was slowly spinning then stopped. i adjusted pots didnt help put them back to normal no spinning.  can add more information.
thanks
