Toshiba M622 VHS VCR

I got this particular Toshiba vcr on Xmas of 2000. The features on it, I found, were very practical and well laid out for a basic 4-head, hifi vcr. However, around November/December of last year(02), the right line-in rca input on the back ceased to provide a signal. I used the rear audio line-in's for recording radio programmes. A little torquing on the jack brought an intermittent signal, which revealed to me that this is a case of sh***y wiring, an art previously mastered by General Electric. And now, as of the 15th of September, the SLP record mode is shot. Wavy, distorted picture. SP is fine, though. Next in line for the quality control test...?
