I have literally never touched, used or even looked at a walkman in person. This channel has made me want to buy gameboy pockets, not it's making me want a walkman!!! Damn you!!!
Buy both!
The Retro Future but the odroid as well!!!
@Rick Astley where did you find one ?
Plays song for 0.2 seconds: *_Entire video gets copyrighted._* I love how you don't try to artificially fluff your videos to 10 minutes. Straight to the point and I like that.
The song was featured in "Matilda".
I remember it very well from my childhood.
Ah yes I had a feeling! But forgot the name. Thanks.
Glad the package arrived safe and sound! Great video bro.
Thanks dude!
Nice to see that you guys get along that well. The origami was a nice touch.
Cool! I had this same Walkman in 1987. The best part about it was the hum I’d hear through the headphones when I pressed play, along with the hiss :-)
I'm so glad there is another Rusted Root fan out there! I've been listening to them since I was a kid. My parents saw them in concert and bought "When I Woke" on the spot. Great Video!
Fantastic video, thank you. Makes it all a little less daunting when it comes to repairing mine now.
I remember that song from Matilda great scene also from Ice age haha!! Shawn is the real MVP 😄 I have decided to fix my walkman after this video. I hope it will turn out okay 😊
You got both of them! Send me a message on twitter if you get stuck!
I remember listening to Send Me On My Way as a kid when watching both those films, and the first iPod I got in year 9 had the song on it and so much nostalgia came flowing back from listening to it. It's a real diamond in the rough :)
Yup Matilda
hi there, just curious whats that paste on video you used to clean the corrosion? cheers
hi, what size belt did you use to repair the wm-32?
Another ace video,mate.Can you post a link for the the mini speaker that you plugged into the walkman?Cheers!
Your channel is just amazing my walkman stopped working i youtubed it found your video and managed to repair it same problem u showed the belt had came off too slack but since then i been watching your videos half of day so i will be using your videos to help repair my faulty gameboys i own thanks for sharing your repairs your awesome ty
Would you happen to know how to fix the crackle noise when you use change the volume?
One thing that might help with cleaning contacts is using sandpaper on them. I did it with some of my units I thought wouldnt make it but it worked
where do you buy the belts? i dont even know what search term to use :/
Ever since I've started watching your videos I've fallen in love with walkmans and now I have refurbished 3 and decided to try a gameboy pocket. Ive also ordered a cheap original gameboy to fix and put in my collection (im only 16 so most people think i'm quite weird)
I have the exact same one and I replaced the belts but the motor isn’t running 😭 don’t know what to do maybe it’s a lost cause
What is the size of the belts inside this model ? Just got a Sony WM-31 today and have desided to fix it.
Man, I just found a Walkman WM-F31 in my local charity shop. Bought a couple of belts and installed them with the help of your other videos... THEN found this video which confirmed I did everything right. The insides are near-identical!
Great videos!
You talk about usually doing video game stuff but it's good to see these Walkmen (Plural?) have an audience.
this was my childhood walkman. You are right, it was a lower end model but as a kid to have a walkman was a big deal
Im purchasing this model. It abit worries me that you said Low end model but does it sound good? how long did it hold up?
@@farlord9264 it was one of the cheapest of their range. Better than modern tape players but definitely not great
quick question - what kind of industry is this in? ive been watching some reburf vids and im super interested to learn how to do some of these stuff!
Hey! Great video. I have the same walkman. The belts are faulty, but I can't find the right size to fix them. Wondering what belt size you used for your walkman?
You can find belts for any walkman by searching the model on ebay
Somebody toucha my casette!

I Just got a WM-31 which is the same as the WM-41 shown here. except for the position of the belt clip.
On the type plate the type is listed as WM-31/32/41.
where can you find the rubber straps for sony walkmans, the black ones of the video? thank you!
Saverio Petrocelli If you're talking about the rubber drive belts inside of the machine, you can find those on eBay pretty easily. For buying belts specific to a particular model you can go to "mihokm"s eBay store where he sells belts specific to particular models.
Where did you Buy the belt for it ?
yeah i only remember that song from matilda lol
Not ice age?
I remember that song from ice age the first one
mine rewinds and forwards but when i hit play it's stuck what should i do?
I just finished fixing up the radio version of one of theese. It's exactly the same on the inside, exept It literally has an AM-FM radio board tacked on
Looks very much like the UK wm31 my first ever Walkman was a wm31 got to fix mine up and I recently got a near immaculate wm31 with original speakers and original headphones still got original foams on looks unused.
Ey, nice! I've got the F31, which I believe is the 31 but with an AM/FM radio C:
I have a question, What do you do with the tons of electronics you fix? I'm just curious considering you've fixed a hella lot of stuff.
Collect/sell/giveaway
Ohh, thats cool! Thanks for getting back to me :)
Clay had the older sister/brother. The wm 31 which had a horizontal belt clip. Very similar design.
I didnt't knew you had a video about this model!!! I have this model too, i dont know if you still have it, i have a quick question about this model and i hope you could help me. ¿What's the factory value set on the orange potentiometer for the motor? mine was all messed up and i want to set it to the proper value (the potentiometer is on the upper left corner, next to the motor) if you could help me i will be so happy, im a fan of your channel, love your videos man!
You should do the yellow water proof extra bass and radio Walkman. That is the one my dad had and he gave to me before we lost it in a house fire I’d love to get another one and refurbish it. I didn’t have it long but I have many memories with it. Thx for reading
What kind of liquid did you use to clean the battery corosjon ( Need answer quick)
Dont hold me responsible, but I heard that vinigar is good for combating corrosion. I although honestly have no idea if it is true or false. Peace!.
Vinegar is a pretty good universal liquid for getting rid of gunk, corrosion and just general muck
You mIght wanna try out the WM-8 in this series of fundamentalist walkmans which runs on 4 PCS of AA batteries, outputting 35mW a channel. It will allow you to run Beyerdynamik DT990 low impedance model. I use it with my Sennheiser 414 Signature and it sounds fabulous, somehow comparable to my home decks such as Sansui SC-5300.
What track is playing at 4:50?
Did you get a new camera? The quality looks so good!
I got the blue wm 31 yesterday with the complete box
And has never been used
The Facebook URL concerning to the intro gives 404 :(
Where can I hear it completly?
That is it completly! It was written for me.
Hello, do you know where i can buy 2nd hand walkman with decent condition.. really need ur help :”)
Ebay, you just gotta be patient
From all the Walkmans I have fixed (we have the same hobby)
That is the most simple and easiest fix EVER!
P.S. You looking for an amazing quality "Walkman" for a decent price and amazing sound,
I'd say you should get your hands on a Toshiba KT-S1 😤
Easy fix and pretty similar to the TPS-L2/WM-3 in look.
I play that song, send me on my way, it's surprising how much love it gets
Right now I'm listening to Tangra II(A Bulgarian New Wave album from 1986 by Tangra II) on the same Walkman. It was hard bringing it back to life, but finally IT'S ALIVE !!!!!
Aye, those Ice Age vibes! Love me some good ROOT.
Hey man, nice videos :) I'm watching and enjoying them all
You kinds overpaid for that. But walkman prices are shooting up. I remember seeing them for about £20 or so.
This is one of the first, "cheapo" walkmans, starting the post 1985 trend that I call "the cheapenning". Previous models had double flywheels, and were more rugged all throughout.
Walkmans are brutally priced now
There’s an increase in sales rn because of stranger things and they are WAYYY overpriced
@@americandomino3656 It started with Guardians of the Galaxy tbh.
I wish I had caught on to the craze in the mid 2000's because at that point even the most saught after models were relatively cheap. Now I keep them as a retirement plan considering how crazy they pop up in price!!!!
I need this plz how can buy to me plz. Plz answer the retro future
It was also released in Italy/Europe under the name wm-31
Thank you so much!
What did he put on the walkman with the cotton swab things
Thank you, I was curious
about it :)
Awesome video as always
Hey how do u fix that Walkman if the motor does not work ? X
Replace the motor!
I don’t know howwwww haha. It’s been my dream to have this Walkman and I don’t wanna mess it up 😂 x
i remember jamming out to slayer's south of heaven album on that
Nice video mate, are you any good with Nintendo switch? The SD card port on mine doesn’t work :(
Luckily the sd card slot is on it's own small board so it's super easy to replace.
sjm4306 ahh that’s awesome man!
I want to get a new personal cassette player soon, great vid :)
You should! Thanks dude.
Hey! Is that Walkman available for give away or on sale, please let me know?
He said that it'd look good on his shelf, so i don't think he's giving it away
also you made the repair look to easy. good job brother
Ive got a sony walkman from 1990 but it has the same mechanism. Its a wm-f2015
Great video!
People dump on this all-plastic malaysian model (WM-31/WM-41 or WM-F31 / WM-41 or with equalizer WM-33 / WM-43 or WM-F33 / WM-F43) but in fact, consumer reports in the usa tested 25 models and this one CRUSHED all walkmans EVEN ONES FROM SONY at $100 or less! And this design-for-manufacturing model cost only $40 and could be sold in blister packs in drug stores! The high-volume and low-cost-of-assembly (only 3 screws) meant VALUE FOR MONEY! When I learned this I rushed out to buy one for every room in my house! This is a keeper! Better sound than any earlier model !!
What's the plant on you table?
Its just an IKEA plant from Amazon.
That looks pretty similar to my Walkman. Mine is a WM-F31. It has an AM/FM-radio, though. Yours doesn't seem to have that.
Nice! I have seen those!
This was strangely calming. Nice channel. New subscriber.
Thank you!
I have one of the very first Sony CD MAN but it does not work correctly but you can have it just get in contact with me
@The Retro Future
Ah another walkman.... Thank you for being the ONE PERSON that does walkman repair vids like this, just wish walkmans weren't getting so expinsive! I'm thinking about a kickstarter campaign to fund a new, smaller version of the Tps-l2, if you or anyone else thinks its a good idea, let me know... Also, a challenge for you Elliot, for your next walkman, can you try to find a sony sport WM-F73 to fix? I have two that the tape decks work, but I can't get any audio from the deck, just the radio, same issue with both. You'd be the one to figure it out! :-)
Blake Romo if you are gonna start a campaign, please use the specs from the sony wm D3 please!
Dib Irken that's a good Idea. This is just something i've been looking into with the rising prices of original walkmans, and the recent releases of cheap boomboxs and higher-quality decks that have come to market With the intrest of tape being a format again, this is something we need. But if this was going to happen I need help, ideas, (like yours) and ultimately, a team to help design this, and start the campaign... (Any Ideas RetroFuture?)
2:10 Matilda. God I love that movie xD
Yep I know thats in Matilda, I’ve got it on a playlist
Rusted Root .. whoa!
That song is from the film "Matilda".
The back lid of my wm-fx 171 fits so tightly and precisely that at first it can appear that the case is sealed. For some of you, it will take seconds to open this, and the rest, the terms of your natural lives.
Damn, I missed the knighthood?
Haha, I am certainly not a sir.
i live in europe and my mom gave me the exact same one, so i think they were also released here
Tony didn't give it to Clay he took it from Tony's car.
Cool Walkman
Hi. I have just repaired two game boys and have them a clean with retrobrite and I am about to put them on ebay for £35 if you want to know.
Ice age, it’s from that, I own the CD, it’s a good album
Not to keen on that show, However yet again a well done video
P.S. ever thing of dabbling in vintage computers, quite interesting stuff.
