Easy to install, this kit replaces all electrolytic capacitors in both boards. Bad capacitors are a primary cause of speed problems and left unchecked may cause failure of the turntable itself.
While not all are yet listed, we can sell kits for any Pioneer Turntable. Or virtually any turntable for that matter.
Includes digital access to both the service and owner's manual.
The kit replaces electrolytic and tant caps with high quality new ones sourced via reputable USA distributors like Digikey and Mouser. Caps are Nichicon high quality UKL and UPW capacitors,
The individual doing the work should be competent with a soldering gun, multimeter, reading a schematic etc. I am not a tech, but I have successfully done hundreds of restorations over the last 20 years.
Many of the parts lists for these kits were compiled when we restored units, others are sourced from the service manuals (digital download included in purchase if you don't know how to source it). We have compiled parts lists for well over 200 units for units from Marantz, Technics, Pioneer, Sansui, Harman Kardon, etc. We do not sell kits for tube gear currently.
If the service manual is wrong (it does happen) we will ship you out the correct parts free of charge. The same is true if we make a mistake in compiling the kit ( I hope not but just in case). We want this process to go smoothly for you.
Included is extensive instruction/guidance (17 pages) with some helpful hints in pdf format. It is not a step by step guide. But, with it, the service manual, our part number labeled parts list you will have everything you need to get the job done.
The kit will ship (usually the next day) via USPS First Class with tracking.
We have bought in bulk hoping to provide the community with an easy, time and cost effective solution. Any feedback on how to do that better is appreciated.
Thank you
