Sony PS-Q3
Preliminary Information
Release Year 1984
Leak Risk Medium
Batteries None
Mounting Technology Through Hole
Capacitor Types Aluminum Electrolytic, Ceramic
Destructive Entry No

Sony PS-Q3 is one of the miniature Sony record players, the cheapest model of the 3 (others being the PS-Q5 and PS-Q7). The PS-Q3 is a belt driven, fully automatic device.

Known Issues

Symptom or Problem Encountered

Turntable not moving, arm not moving.

Capacitors are quality brand and before the capacitor plauge, so it is unlikely they leak. My device has a speed problem, and I decided to order capacitors before starting desoldering parts to find the issue.

Causes

  • Main belt turns into goo
  • Arm belt dries out

Solutions

  • Replace all belts

Disassembly Notes

Be careful with the screws, they screw into plastic and they can get brittle. Follow the arrows on the unit otherwise, just as with any Sony device. After removing the screws, the top shell comes off. Make sure to remove the cartridge first to give it enough room.

Replacement Parts

Belts

Exact original belt sizes are either unknown (main belts) or impossible to source (arm belt). These are the ones I managed to source easily, the main belts are from a local shop who supply them based on inner circumference, the arm belt is from ebay found as "D13".

Belt Cross section Diameter Inner Circumference Width Note
Main, short Square 30 mm 1.6 mm Perfect fit
Main, long Square 83 mm 1.2 mm Should be thicker, maybe shorter
Arm Square D13 20 mm 1.5 mm Should be thinner, maybe shorter
