Need help fixing a Panasonic Pv-V4525S from eating tapes
I have this old Panasonic Pv-V4525S VCR. It currently likes to eat tapes and turn off after trying to lower the vhs into the tray. The error code is 0103 if I hold the channel down button after it shuts off. I Already cleaned up the oxidized rotary switch and taped over the forks to give a better contact to the traces underneath, since they were not giving a good contact unless I pushed down on the switch. But It still runs into the same problem. I also soldered some test points to the rotary switch (Pins 1 through 5) to test if it makes good contact while running. When in eject mode Pin 1 and five make a good connection, and when trying to load the vhs 3-5 and 4-5 make a good connection as well. I've been trying to follow this service manual but I'm not too well versed in this field as I'm better with newer hardware. Any help would be appreciated! Here also the service manual: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/2753965/Panasonic-Pv-V4525s.html?page=2#manual
