hi, i have a marantz 5020 deck and just replaced the bulbs and the belts, now the belts work great and the lights look very nice, my problem is with the left channel, when i insert a tape the left channel vu meter buries itself at the max volume level while the right level plays nicely, when listening i have to adjust the balance on the receiver to equal out the sound, i de-oxited all the switches and sliders, also the controls but can't get the left side to come down a few notches....anyone have any ideas?

Would be much appreciated!

thanks
