Dcc-175 only playing one side

I have a dcc-175 that is only playing the a side of the tape. The tape is good, does anybody has a idea where to start looking. I had this problem before on a other player, i switch heads and that did the trick. Unfortunately i have no spare head this time.

Hi,
I believe that the head is the problem. There are most likely damages on the b side of the head.
A donor head might be the only solution.

I assume that the head of a 175 is the same as the 170, isn’t it?

Thank you for the reply!
