My Sony WM-D6C walkman has suddenly developed issues with playing tapes too fast and also forward and rewind have stopped working. Is this a drive belt issue or is it electronic?

Initially, it was just the the forward and rewind functions that would not work, but after trying to play a tape again playback has speeded up considerably.

Likely something has wrapped around the drive capstan, that would make tapes play faster. Forward and reverse are likely belt issues.

New tape playing too fast. What do I do to slow it to normal speed?

You have to replace the IC 601, probably burns because of some passive components that must be replaced. "Doctor.walkman @ gmail.com"

My Sony Walkman Professional WM-D6C will turn on but the take-up spindle just slowly inches the tape along in short bursts, not a continious action.

Contact me at my email doctor.walkman @ gmail.com, I'll ask you some questions and some photos of the WM-D6C in his possession. We will solve the problem

The power is on but the motor will not turn the tape drive. Does anyone know a good repair shop?

Hmm, when you press play, can you feel the motor turning, do the spindles turn on fast forward or rewind? If so you may have one of two problems. First check to see if the cue button is is depressed. If it is jammed, the deck will FF and RR but won't play. If it's not that, but the motor still spins, the motor is no longer making contact with the flywheel. If you have a repair manual, dismantle the deck and check out the motor contact

Plays too fast

WMD6C has a pitch control on the back of the unit that can change the speed of the tape, so switch it off, but if that is not the problem then inside the unit it has a servo set speed pot on the main board.
