Thank you for the advice everyone!
I have not done anything to the deck yet. I thought I would let it sit overnight and see what happens.
So far the deck plays but it does so wobbly. The rewind does not work but it sounds like it wants to engage. The fast forward does work for a bit and then quits.
As the deck is playing, I noticed that dolby b & c work. The monitor button works. But the switches for 70μS/120μS and normal/chrome/metal are not working. So that might be where the problem lies. I'll blow it with some compressed air when I get home from work.
Tonykay- I hear you and agree. I just don't have the cash to have this thing serviced. I am fairly competent so I try to do most of the maintenance on my own. I admit like many others I might know enough to be dangerous but not enough to call myself a tech!
