Problem turned out to be cracked board, only on top across about 5 traces. I
tinned four of them with solder, the other with a thin lead and it works.
I surprised myself. This unit has traces tops and bottom. The traces on tops
are real minute that I new there was no way I could jumper across them.
There was no way to find out where they went even with a print since I could
not follow one of them.
Scrapping the coating away and tinning the traces actually worked on this
unit.
I do have one problem left. On the right side of the carriage there is a
lever with a spring. I can not figure out where the top portion of this
spring gets positioned. There is a metal pin protruding, but it does not
appear strong enough to support the tension from the spring and the cassette
gets stuck during eject.
I appreciate all the input thus far.
