Return the unit, it is faulty.

It seems like the original owner sold it because the magnetic record head cable is broken. Minidiscs rely on a magnetic head on the top of the disc to record the changes into a recordable disc (along with the laser to heat the disc to allow it). If the cable to the head is broken then the magnet will not be energised and therfore it will not record, this also has the result of blanking any disc you put into the machine.

On a different note, the MD you have should still function as a player only unit.
