Anyone have experience with diagnosing a Sansui SD-3030 quad player? I'm not getting signal from the front left channel. Using a quad tape, in forward play, I get signal on the front right, but not front left. In 4 channel mode, the rear two channels sound like they are playing backwards. In reverse play, all four channels work perfectly.
Heads and pots were cleaned (alcohol and deoxit, respectively).
I can't locate a service manual anywhere, and the SD-5050 looks sufficiently different that its service manual isn't much use.
I've got a DMM, and an oscilloscope (although I'm not great at using the oscilloscope yet) for diagnostics. Besides a signal generator (which I assume I can get an app for). what else do I need to re-align the heads?
Thanks,
Mike
