I just bought a Teac X-1000R and it's not working. When I press PLAY or FF I hear the solenoids kick in but I get no action from the reels.
I have a video showing my problem at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZg31U4bahs

Any help is appreciated.

I have this same issue with my X-1000R also. On my deck, if I press the pause button first it seems to engage the rollers and then when I press play it plays just fine. On auto-reverse, however, the reverse function engages, but then the tape stops. I believe it has something to do with tension. I'm not sure if a belt is used to work this function that may need to be changed. Fortunately Teac still is in existence and many parts for the 1000 and 2000 models are still available. I also have a good RTR tech in my area but I'm going to have him work on my Dokorder 1120 first and then bring in the Teac.

Hope this helps and if you found out anything more specific please be kind and share the info.
