Rwwear is correct. These Pioneer decks were not known for their high reliability. Having said that, did you check and see if the belt is slipping? I don't recall if this model has a direct drive capstan or not.

Pioneer CT-F1000 Need Help
I pulled out the old Pioneer CT-F1000 to hook up to my Vintage system and it still looks as good as the day I bought it, but when I press play or any of the buttons nothing happens. It powers up and all lights work so I opened it up and cleaned the inside and checked the belts which seemed to be fine, but still nothing. Any ideas?
