Took the face off of my Tascam Portastudio 246 today to address an external chunky noise on playback (thinking the idler tires based on some threads i read). Didn't replace them, because they didnt look too bad, but used the opportunity to deep clean the machine. During the clean a small spring 'popped out' and I don't know where it goes. I put the machine back together and it turned on fine, but the counter didn't turn on. After a moment of handling the machine the counter blinked on and off a few times. The record function LEDs are not turning on. In addition, tapes won't play/rew/ff and the tapeheads don't move.
Hoping I didn't totally F something up here. There's a lot going on here, but if anyone has any insight or moral support I will be eternally grateful. Thanks yall.
