Hello!
First, identify if the drive shaft starts: Open the cassette door. Look for the cassette sensor at the top of the cassette nest. Usually it is near the middle. If you press your finger, you can start playing without a tape. Please check if the drive shaft is rotating and the winding spindle rotates? If it does not, or if it stops with very little force, the drive belt is loose or torn.
