[SOLVED] Connecting Sharp RT255H, SA255H and RP255H together?

[FH2K]

I recently received this set (RT225H, SA255H, RP255H) as a gift from my grandfather. But I have no idea how to connect them and how to clean the ports and cables etc. I really want to learn how to clean it and how to use it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Some pictures:

The turntable connects to the "phono" inputs on the bottom unit. Red = Right channel, White = Left channel. You can see there is a ground connection next to the phono inputs.
The multipin cable goes between the tape deck and the bottom unit where it says "tape"

Cleaning -- I recommend DeOXIT Gold -- https://www.amazon.com/Hosa-G5S-6-DeoxIT-Contact-Enhancer/dp/B00FC4YO60 To clean and lubricate connections. Spray the connector and plug and remove it a couple times while twisting the RCA connectors to clean them.

Thank you. And where do I connect the other colored (red, yellow, white and black) cables. I guess they have to be connected to where it says "LINE" but I can't really figure out the color codes.

I have the speakers too though I doubt if they work. And their connectors look like these:

From your pictures, it was not obvious what the 4 colored wires were connected to. Maybe some wider view pictures would help.

They are connected to the 5pin one

Yeah, they should go to the line-in/line-out on the tape deck. Which is which is going to take some testing. I would guess red/white are line out and yellow black are line in. But that is just a guess. Use the model numbers and search for user's manual on the internet. There might be one you can download. I didn't find anything in English so I can't help too much more.
