MSR-16 can't remember where zero was

I have a Tascam MSR-16 that I am attempting to repair.
Can anyone help with the following?
My MSR-16 cannot remember where Zero was. It will stop at Zero when I hit RTZ but the actual location of zero is no where near where I previously reset the counter to Zero.
This RTZ issue I am trying to fix also throws off the "Load", "Memo 1 & 2" buttons as well.
Thanks
Dave
 
What is the condition of the counter roller? Is the rubber dry, hard, glazed, cracked? Does the counter roller spin freely? You should be able to spin it with your fingers and have it continue spinning for a bit.
 
That would be my guess as well. If there was a problem with the tach signal itself I would have expected other symptoms, so slippage would make the most sense.
