...try the simple procedure that often works.
After many years of sitting idle some contacts both in the switches and in relay might become oxidized and will not make connection when required.
In some cases just exercising them will clear some faults. So keep turning the machine ON and OFF, selecting different modes and some of that function might come back.
Not so long ago I had that happen in the Otari MX-5050, where the speed switch refused to work after years of inaction. Pushing it about 50 times restored the operation.
If that doesn't help then the contact cleaner often work.
