I'm trying to figure out why the AC head would affect Tuning ??? Look for open Circuit Protectors as to why the Capstan won't spin. last Combo I worked on(Emerson/Funai) had a bad Idler Clutch assembly in the VCR Deck. No parts were available for the VCR Deck,just the deck as a whole($49). around here,you can buy a new Combo for $99.
