Fault and repair guide

VCR is sluggish in or fails to wind

Internally the VCR contains many drive belts which are used in the mechanics of tape transport. With age these belts become slack causing malfunctions and when this happens the whole lot should be replaced.

Strange behaviour of capstan or drum servo

The first thing to check is the tantalum capacitors in the servo circuit.
