Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

Minimum leakage at the audio head unit and glad that the owner decided to have it refurbished now.

Replaced and uprated the elecrolytic caps.



I wish every owners do the same to save these OEM head units....
















It's European spec OEM unit so must strengthen the CD changer ACC line before powering up any Apple device using USA Spec PA11-HON.

Very lucky that the owner didn't know the adaptor was already installed.

It could have burnt the healthy head unit.














Power I/F board refurbished.




















There were lots of scratch markings, chemical stain and even trace of food debris but display module is now cleaned.



















Cassette module head, pinch roller, etc cleaned using the ancient cleaner from Japan.
