|  Re: Plus 4 messed up
hmm,
1,check din connectors from tape deck to plus 4,for bent pins,along with the power supply plug
2,while power supply is plugged in to plus 4 and switched on ,wiggle the supply lead to see if anything happens to screen display,if there are changes then could be a faulty psu connector on the pcb,a resolder will cure this
3,get a cotton bud,and some aftershave which is alcohol based,and clean heads and pinch roller etc,im more inclined to follow this procedure,as it sounds like not all the data from tape cassette is reaching plus 4 properly,also when you do this allow to dry for 20mins,after cleaning
4,realine tape deck heads with a cassette realiner which are quite easy to get hold of
5,cheack seating of all chips inside plus 4 for correct connection,a simple remove and replace usually does the trick,
hope this is of some help to you,lee
