Ever see a CDM with a temp warning? This is a non-Bose, '94 DeVille.

So using the diagrams from this manual, I made a cheat sheet for capacitor sizes. I have 2 CDMs taken apart right now and in process of re-capping both to see if I can make them work again.Hopefully this works, if not, let me know

I don't want to raise this thread from the dead, but this seems to be the only place on the internet with information on these things. Long story short, I got a 16191455 electronic eq cassette player to replace the broken mechanical one. I got for pretty cheap off eBay, and I plugged it in and it turns on and works, but it won't play or eject anything. Took it apart and the belt is kind of soggy, so I plan on replacing it, even though it's not too bad. When you insert a tape in, it it runs it forward and backward like as if the tape was blank, then tries to eject it but all it does is keep clicking and not doing anything. I don't see anything bent or broken or otherwise missing, so I'll probably just replace the belt and lube it up. Is that all I can do? All the buttons and stuff work. Took some pics, let me know if you see anything wrong. I e never messed with these systems before so I'm not sure. Everything looks brand new so I'm confused with the clicking sound. The little solenoid is what controls the eject, is that correct?You must be registered for see images attachYou must be registered for see images attachYou must be registered for see images attachYou must be registered for see images attach
Nah those are just little 2/3-AA batteries from some outdoor path lights I think lol.To the OP AK49BWL we have those exact keyboard trays at work. And are those classic Apple Macintosh batteries in the pen holder?
Probably a bad cdm, but it would be odd if not having all 5 bands resulted from failure rather than being the incorrect part. I would try another cdm (regardless of what type it is) to see if the audio issue is resolved to narrow down the problem. I had a bad head unit that would light up and turn on but there was no audio and other controls didn’t work. Cdm was fineHey gang, putting a stock setup in my 90 c1500 and running into a bit of a snag. Seems this is the group that knows their stuff so hoping someone may be able to help or point me in the right direction.
Starting from scratch as I purchased the truck with an aftermarket radio. Head unit and CDM had been removed. I've sourced all components indvidually from the interwebs. Here's what I have...
Head unit - 16141385
CDM - 16072780
Equalizer - 16191455
The head unit (which I believe to be the 5 band EQ version since there are no bass/treble buttons and based on the info in the first post) powers up. I can adjust volume, tune, everything. With the antenna plugged into the CDM, then head unit will stop at stations it can pickup. Equalizer powers up, but only the 2 outer bands light up. No sound out of any speakers no matter how much I play with the fade or balance. No radio static or anything. I've ruled out speaker wiring (1) as it worked fine with the aftermarket head unit and (2) I passed audio signal to the speaker harnesses and they work fine.
My hunch is that the CDM (which I believe to be a 5 band CDM again based on the info in this thread) could be powering the head unit and the equalizer, but not passing any audio signal. And perhaps if audio signal in the CDM is shot, this is causing the EQ to default to the 2 bands rather than the 5. Sound like this be the case?
Thanks for any help in advance!
