Well, this is a fun thread. I grew up with tapes, so I like my cassette deck to work. I hadn’t used it in many years (I turned the radio off sometime in 1999 and didn’t turn it back on until 2016) and one channel while playing a tape didn’t work. I pulled the radio, nosed around a bit and disconnected and reconnected the ribbon cable in there. Both channels on the deck worked again! For one week. Since then, I just plugged in an fm transmitter and pair my phone to the radio, but the tape deck is still a special level of fun to me.
