I have a Yamaha YST-C10 mini-stereo that was made around 1990. It has two cassette decks, a CD player and an AM/FM tuner. When it is turned on in tuner mode, the cassette deck capstans normally run for about one second and then the radio will begin to play. Currently, however, the capstans run continuously for about five minutes followed by running intermittently in two second bursts for another five minutes. The radio will play softly when the capstans stop during the intermittent phase. After about 10 minutes of this, the capstans stop completely and all the stereo functions work fine.
I've looked for loose connections and tried pushing the reset button on the back of the unit. I also contacted Yamaha to get a service manual but was told it's no longer available.
I'm new to this forum and any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Tom
