I have 2 even older pioneers -a ctf-1000 (3 head, blue flourescent VU
meters) and a ctf 9191 (I think those are the models, dont have them
nearby). In the former, the motor driving the spools was faulty and in
the latter the play solenoid drew too much current and blew a
transistor in its feed. Dont have a service manual unfortunately. Not
familiar with your model. Sounds like a nice bit of kit. Does it have
the blue meters also?
Good luck Ben
