Don had mentioned he repaired this unit by replacing the audio head that probably failed when he did the manual degauss.

One of our fellow Tech's who knew of my problem suggested that I post this so everyone knows that when degaussing combos the audio head in the VCR section can be damaged. Hope this helps someone.
