Ty,
Check the tension band, perhaps it is missing or torn.
Check the tension arm, perhaps it is not in load position, missing spring..not
in line, etc.

Subject: [TechAssist] VR9160 Magnavox - Tracking fails to lock on.
This is the one that has the circuit board that lifts up like a car's hood.
Thing came in for eating tapes. The Idler drag clutch was bad. I fixed the
mechanicals, Now it won't lock on.
I am pretty sure the problem is the PG pulls shaper cap that is usually on
the Capstan motor.
Does anyone remember where this cap is located on the board?
I had the manual for this series, whit all my notes, but can not remember
whom to remind to return it.
Thank you for your time and effort.
