Found this boombox in my science lab and I'm trying to fix it

Most of the information is in the video but what's happening is that the FM is quite unreliable and both speakers like to pop quite dramatically when I'm changing the volume. Also, the rewind button is stuck down but I don't plan on using any cassettes in here. I just don't know if that affects anything. I'll gladly give more information if you need it, I just don't know what information to give since I've never used a boombox before

I'm not sure where these came from unfortunately. They're most likely from Texas. I'm working at a very small local museum and we're trying to make sure they get labeled correctly for our storage. These were given to us and we don't have contact with the original owner

Edit: WE DID IT. THE BIRD IS FREE!!! I still feel stupid but at least it won't starve or die of dehydration

A warbler hit a window at my workplace and got stunned. I took it inside and I was going to put it in a box like I've done many times before (I used to volunteer at a wild bird rescue). It got out and now it's loose in the building. There's a ton of hiding spots and I haven't seen him in about twenty minutes. We tried catching him with a net and it didn't work. I'm currently a grad student and I'm working with birds. I called my advisor to help but it seems hopeless since we can be here at night due to alarms and we can't turn off the lights since we need to work (we're setting up a mist nest). I feel so embarrassed and ashamed. My boss knows, my grad advisor knows, and I just want to shrivel up. I did the one thing I didn't want to do which is possibly kill a bird. It's probably going to starve in here and I can't do anything about it. I feel awful and I can't stop crying. I just wanted to help
