The problem is that the cartridge pulls in but does not pull the tape around the head. There must be a switch or a sensor somewhere that signals that the cartridge is present. Can someone guide me on what to check!
Thanks!

"4.) Inspect the Mode and Load switches. ( These report transport status to the system control IC. ) One is located on a yellow pcb near the capstan and the other is on the underside of the mechanism. The contacts are gold plated, but the plating wears off. If the silver traces that lead to the switch contacts have turned black, change both switches."
