Sorry your unit is a micro and mini cassette transcriber but I remember it does not have option for erase you can get an a eraser at http://www.tvps.com/Products/ECS-ME20-Mini--Micro-Cassette-Eraser---New__VE-ME-20.aspx and this also extend the life of your transcriber any way is really simple and a quick solution to your problem.

If it does this with all tapes, there is a small "no-cassette" switch at the back of the cassette compartment. The switch may be broken, dirty or out of adjustment. When you open the cassette door you should be able to see the switch tab. Push it in just a bit to see if the No Tape indicator goes out.

The erase switch has probably failed and needs to be replaced.
