    Main issue:
    Unable to engage in Forward/Reverse Play(Rec)
    When Play button is pressed the player goes into FF for about 2-3 sec then in REV for another 2-3 sec and again in FF for same length of time and after that beeps 3 times then stops.
    During this cycle all other operations are blocked
    Pressing again: result is the same.
    Pressing FF or REV: unit operates normally
    Tape is not at any of its ends.
    The tip of the For/Rev switch on PCB is aligned (in the middle) with mechanical fork from the transport mechanism.
    Has anybody encountered this problem before?
    Have you been able to solve it?
    If so, how you managed to do it?
    Every response is greatly appreciated.
    Best wishes to everyone.
