the spring on the side of the lid mechanism
has come off and the lid no longer can be left in an open postion. Along with that the the take out cassette/stop recording button no longer keeps itself in the pressed possition.
(take out cassette button not pressed, lid lever in open postion)
(take out cassette button is pressed, lid still open) id be gratefull if anyone could help with a picture of the mechanism for reference,advice or a refernce to a source/forum where i can get help. :)
