If the HiFi audio is only giving you one channel then it is likely an electronic problem. The HiFi audio track is actually a (FM IIRC) modulated high frequency signal that is recorded and played back on the video heads. If you are getting a good picture you should have good HiFi sound on both channels..

You're thinking Beta. Beta could use the video heads to record the FM audio too because of the way NTSC Beta format modulated the video and color carriers leaving enough unused spectrum between luminance and chroma to squeeze in a couple of FM audio carriers. Not so with VHS, which required separate hifi audio heads on the cylinder.

On the tracking indicator, usually when you switch to Hifi tracking one of the level meters will show the hifi RF level off the tape and you adjust tracking for peak.
Does not always correspond to peak video quality though. Sometimes you have to adjust between best video and audio, split the difference, depending on compatibility of recording from another VCR.
