Japan Electronics but i don't find it reputable. Main & 30th Vancouver
Better place would W.C. Enterprises but still not great. Back East.
Nothing better

Japan Electronics is where I send my warranty stuff most the time. Unless it's a DVD headunit then WC is where it goes.

I fix them but most decks aren't worth looking at unless you really love it to death...

Ok so what kinda ballpark price range am I looking at? I know it is hard to say without seeing the deck....I think I am just missing a spring for the motorized faceplate.....as the faceplate is just loose and dangles..

I haven't seen a stereo repair for less than $80 most stereo repairs are at least over a $100 if not in the mid $200's

Nippon charges $90 an hour. Estimates are $30. I just had a $60 part installed for $172 after tax.
Is that a good example for you?

No one online can tell you how much, you need to bring the deck in for an estimate.
Otherwise a new stereo nowadays is pretty affordable. Unless you had top of the line older stereo, it might not be worth repairing
