Sounds like the lift motor, It could have taken out the engine board as well.

With the cassette removed, push the the switch with the white flange. This tells the machine that the cassette is inserted and activates the lift motor. If a different cassette is working then this tells me that something in the current cassette isn't pushing in that switch. Match it up and check that part of the cassette, shim it if you have to. Also remove the switch and check to see if anything is cracked. All the connector does it tell the machine the paper size, which you can specify manually.
