When you get it running well, you can then say "You've Listened To A Ford Lately"
Well I guess what I meant is that it was the earliest compact cassette recorder I've ever owned.

Anyways, I did recap the unit, but then I had a wire come loose on the circuit board on this unit, a red wire, that I can't figure out where it came from.
I assumed it came from an area near where another red wire had attached to the board that was part of the power switch that turns the power on for the amplifier when you hit the play button, but it didn't seem to do anything when I attached it to there.
I looked up the Sam's for this unit and that didn't even show the wires attached to the board and where they went, and the schematic wasn't much help either because as they didn't have the wires labeled with their respective colors.
