With  the machine on?




Please do it with the machine off. Wiggling wires is not usually a good  idea 
when it is hot. The other way to check is with an ohm meter. Unplug the  head 
block and connect one lead to the connector center pin and the other  end on 
the center wire where it is soldered to the tape heads. You should get a  null 
reading. Wiggle the wire and check again. Same thing with the sleeve. If  you 
get anything else, your connection is bad.
