If the sound comes out of all speakers normally when you play the radio or a CD, then the tape player portion of the stereo head unit is toast. Getting just the tape section of the read unit repaired or replaced is usually more expensive that replacing the whole thing.

up to you- if you confirmed with another cassette and made sure your balance is in the center. Do you hear anything coming out of it when you shift balance completely to the 'quiet' side? Does it play normally from CD/AM/FM?
