Sharp MD-MS721-S Mini Disc Recorder Repairs - Part 1

I picked up a Sharp MD-MS721-S Mini Disc Recorder to be able to record my own MD's. This one came with a few issues, but the seller said it worked. Does it?
Partially. Playback was working, recording not, battery barely holds charge, remote lead had seen better days. I don't know much about MDs so lets open it up and see what we find.
