My old Pioneer RT-707 needed too much money to repair($450) so I found a good used and working Teac 2340R for $100. Everything is good, sounds terrific, makes me realize how much work the RT-707 was in need of. But one VU meter is non-functional. Has anyone changed a VU meter on one of these Teac decks? Seems fairly straightforward, remove front panel, change meter. Anything I am missing that I need to know?
Thanks,
Thomas

I ended up finding good reel to reel information on Audiokarma. My Teac 2340R has a minor problem, but is playing and recording. The VU meter must have a cold solder connection somewhere at the headphone jack. If I insert a 1/4" plug halfway into the jack the VU meter works.

Not to diss this here, but check out the tapeheads.net forum.

I registered on that site months ago and have never been able to do a search or post a new thread. Every link is blocked, "not allowed access, or my account is not verified." I can log in, but it gets me nowhere. Tried contacting them but am still waiting for some response. Maybe I need to donate?

Tried using 2 different browsers, I can log in but am not able to do a search or post a new thread on both. I have sent numerous messages to the site administrator with zero response. I registered several months ago. If I could use the site, I would even make a donation, but since they won't even respond to a request for help, that's not going to happen.

its been a while since I had one of those apart. Before replacing the meter though, I would be more inclined measure for voltage at the meter input. Its more likely an interstage coupling cap which sends the AC signal to the meter may have dried out.
