I recently got 2 EIKI 16MM Sound projectors and each one has a specific different problem and I would appreciate any advice from you members out there on how to repair them .
One has a sound problem . When I turn on the volume control knob the exciter lamp lights up but no sound . I changed both fuses also . The speaker is connected and even with an external speaker hooked on there is no sound .
The other will not rewind film . When I engage the control to the rewind position , the sprockets move to the position on the arm to rewind but there is no power going to it .
Any ideas ?? Thanks . [Smile]
