It is a circuit fault. Seek tech assistance.

    Mr. Gopakumar Gopalan, I have the same model Sony Dream Machine ICF C10W, and the radio is very difficult to tune, and sometimes the speaker cuts out. I am in New York City. Anything i can do?

    Hello It sounds that there is some fault with its crystal oscillator section circuits. Anyway, just check its speaker first, because, you reports that it cuts out intermittently. If the lead wire inside the speaker diaphragm has minute break; this is the most common fault all speakers; the audio output will be cut off intermittently as you reports here. Just see Mr: Paul, the equipment you have applies digital electronics, and all sections inside it are working by digital impulses. Even though it is a small device, the circuit inside it is very complicated, that an inexperienced person cannot do anything with the circuit board. I've given some hints here, you must decide the rest. If you have sound knowledge in electronics; and have practical experience to work with small digital circuit boards, and have all necessary testing equipment; can check for fault by yourself. Otherwise, it will be best to contact the authorized service center for Sony at your town. OK?

Belt either came off or is slipping. You can open the system up and view it yourself, just make sure the stereo is unplugged.
