TEAC R - 999X Auto Reverse Stereo Cassette Deck - Runs But Has Problems As - Is

TEAC R-999X Auto Reverse Stereo Cassette Deck - Runs But Has Problems sold As-Is. This hasn’t been used for years so it probably just needs a good cleaning on the contacts of the switches, but it does need repair so it’s being sold as is for parts or repair. The biggest issue I found is that when you hit play, the play light just blinks on and off and doesn’t go and then you have to push play again and hold it for a while before it starts to play. Same thing happens when it goes ...in the auto reverse, it switches directions and then the light blinks and then you have to hold the play button down for it to start. Sometimes I had to power it on and off again for the play to start. I did test it for playing in both directions and for recording and it seems to be fine once it started to play. I don’t know if the speed is perfect but it sounded good. I bought this used a few years ago and the previous owner did say that he had it serviced but I don’t know what was done and I don’t know the exact date If the service. There is a service sticker on the back. The drawer seems to open fine. When I first powered it on it didn’t move but after I pushed it a few times it opened and closed just fine after that. The cover over the drawer open/close switch feels like it is loose and needs to be glued down. Also the door next to the eject button is missing. Please see photos for exact condition.
