There's a loading completion switch that has to close once the tape is fully loaded around the cylinder for the pinch solenoid to engage. I'd suspect a slipping loading belt. Maybe you'll get lucky and that's all it will be. Also from your other post I think you mention the head cylinder spins when powered on? Shouldn't be spinning when it's stopped.
