I dusted off my je470 after the eject problem rendered it useless for over a decade and noticed the melted belt and put a pink loom band on it, it's working for now until I find a better one.
Off topic but the main pcb has lots of missing components being a cut down version. So was wondering if anyone managed to mod it. An optical out? Headphone out, even a new output opamp stage. There's a optical out mod for the je440 so hoping these 2 models are similar.
