  • Bell & Howell 535 Film-O-Sound

    I purchased a 535 for 9 bucks at the Goodwill Clearance Center that powered up OK, but the spindles weren't turning in forward or reverse. Upon opening it up, the worm gear looks good, the belts look good, the exciter lamp circuit looks good (unlike my 1550), and the reverse position turns the belts but not the spindle. In the forward position, the belts do not turn. Any suggestions?

    1) The main drive belt position looks suspicious. Is the speed control in its correct position?
    2) The worm looks good but may have cracks on its other side.
