The deck is an ARA model 6703169. The connectors appear to be identical to what Ford used during that era, so it appears to be an aftermarket set designed for Ford or even something manufactured for Ford and installed at the factory?
Anyway, I disassembled the unit today and much to my surprise the belt is not broken. In fact, it even plays tapes again, although when I change tracks about once for every 10 times I can get the deck to stop, but then can manually restart it. Some tapes I noticed had played slow and the belt feels loose...A replacement is in order, but would just a worn belt cause these symptoms?
