Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Found this at the usual getting spot, $15 for a cassette deck is the cheapest I've seen yet, especially given its age and irregardless that it doesn't work. I especially like this one as it has a lot of neat features that none of my other decks have. For example, it has a dual direction head, that allows it to both playback and record the tape without having flip the tape, s well as Dolby C noise reduction. This was quite a challenge to troubleshoot and repair, and at one point I had almost given up, but I did eventually figure it out and got this beautiful example of early 1980's tech working again.
