Play/record (ONLY) function inoperative on Pioneer cassette deck??

Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

What could be the cause? Pulleys operate all normal on FF and Reverse, belts all in place and fine... But that right-hand spindle just refuses to load the tape at Play/Record and it gets all tangled up...

I have used this little machine for what, 30 years? Now my son wants it, and I can't even get it to work!...
