How do I eject cassettes from a Sharp RT-W800 dual cassette deck?

The stop/eject button works to stop but doesn't eject the tape. I have two cassettes inside the unit that I would like to remove. Is there a button combination I need to hit in order to have the tapes pop out?

It should work with a second press of that button, after the stop is pressed. If it doesn't there must be something wrong with the mechanism that removes the tapes.

SOURCE: Denon Dual Cassette Deck DRW-660 will not eject either tape

Some dual decks use a common drive belt. It may have become too slack (due to age) to drive mechanism. I am sure its time to change all belts in both decks. This will solve the problem

SOURCE: Cassette Tape stuck

The problem here is that the unit is stuck in a partial position. The "reset" by unplugging and plugging back in usually causes the unit to reset to a known position. If there is no activity (no motor sound), it will need to be opened up and reset manually. If you hear the motor running for a short period, it is attempting to reset, but the belt is most likely worn or broken. These units are relatively simple, but a bit tricky to dis-assemble. This repair should not require anything other than a belt or 2. Figure on $3-$10 for parts plus the local labor rate for the repair.

SOURCE: How do you hook up a sharp stereo cassette deck

If that tape deck of yours has an audio line out jack (like the RCA red & white holes, usually located at the back), get an RCA plug to connect it to your stereo receiver's line in jack..... or

if that tape deck of yours doesn't have an audio line out jack but, instead, has phones (or headphones) jack (usually located at the side or front of the unit), then get a plug to connect it to your receiver's audio line in jack (RCA type, also coloured red & white).. Usually the plug is small so you may have to use an adapter for your tape deck's phones jack.

Pioneer CT-W208r won't eject tape.

These dual cassette decks were throw away units in most cases. The belt inside and the grease in the cam mechanism is in bad shape and the deck can not cycle through the steps it need to so as to reach stop. Only stop mode will allow the door block to release. The tape can safely be extracted by a Technician. The deck need work. Dual cassette decks are not always worn the repair cost.

Sony TC-WR690 doors will not open to remove the cassette.

If you remove the cover after unplugging the AC, you will see that when you push the eject button that on the back side the putton is held back by a white plastic piece. Push down the white plastic piece as you press the eject button. The door will open and the tape will release. I jsut did this today on my Sony TC WR 670 dual tape player. Both sides were blocked. I noticed that both fuses on the board were also blown. New fuses didn't solve the problem. May be that the transformer is out?
