Against everyone's better judgement, I recently acquired a Tascam 58 off of ebay. So far, it appears I got pretty lucky and almost everything seems to function as it should.
The only problem I am having is with Track 4. I can record to it and playback through the Repro head but NOT the Sync head.
I am sure the possibilities are endless as to what could be the problem but I was hoping there may be some ideas you guys may have or perhaps some troubleshooting tips to perhaps narrow down the source of the problem. The only things I have done are clean and visually inspect the heads and the Sync head looks fine.
The Service Manual is on its way but until then any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
