I have this sanyo VCR/DVD combo when i first got it the tape would drag really slow. this is a video of it
https://youtu.be/3XrioZgPI_k
I got busy during this time and it has just sat in my room for two years and now i've been trying to get around fixing it. Well now it wont even play the tape and just powers off upon loading the tape here it is at its current state

I am pretty much stuck at this point on what to do. I took it apart and cleaned the encoder mode switch! Which did nothing. So i thought maybe the power supply was bad and i completely recapped most of the power supply. as ive seen other videos with this similar unit have bad caps. i missed four caps that i some how forgot when i was ordering caps
I also cleaned the little RF glass signal thing that gets split three ways. I don't know the proper name but the RF sensor that detects if the tape is spinning.
This unit is amazingly clean inside it was manufactured in 2015 i got in 2018 so it has seen very little play! Ive noticed that this type of machine is made by MAGNAVOX ZV427MG9 A and i am sure there are other machines from looking at youtube videos.
Any help of suggestions would be great! sorry for the huge post but i've been slamming my head on this thing for a few days now.
I should also add that the capstan moves freely when i move it with my hand and it spins all the gears!
