Hi guys, This unit quits playing after about 2 seconds. C31 23 flashes in the top right of the EVF.(no idea what it means) While running,the tape counter changes so I don't know if this means that the reel sensors are working or not. Also, when ejecting, I have to try a half a dozen times before it will fully eject. Both reels seem to be okay.The capstan motor turns freely(by hand) Nothing seems to be binding. Any ideas?
