Panasonic top-loader VCR Issues

I had a similar problem with a JVC HR-D470U. It was a high ESR cap in the circuit the reads the control track.

I realize a JVC VCR is Completely Different than a Panasonic/Matsushita VCR in how the Circuit Boards are labeled and layed out, but what board was it that was controlling the control track reading on the VCR? Was there a specific name for that circuitboard? I have the service data for my VCR but have no clue where to begin to look for that particular circuit on my VCR and it doesn't help matters any that the VCR has about 10+ circuitboards in it that all have a different name for them.
