I can appreciate your masterful skills. I used to do warranty work for Curtis Mathes, as well as other brands. That was way back in the 80s. I remember lots of timing problems from broken plastic parts and state switches. I'd sometimes spent way too much time on them but luckily we'd also have lots of gravy jobs like head cleaning. I love your videos. It's fun to follow along with your adventure without having to keep up with all those parts.
Cool 12voltvids back at it with a VCR video. That's a unique VCR, it's the first time I see one like that. JVC VCRs with this mechanism are common to find in thrift stores.
Great diagnosis Dave! I had to do the timing on same kind of mechanism, too bad it's all cheap plastic. In my case ( I did it for a co-worker), the mechanism lost it's timing due to someone pushing the cassette too hard ( inserting the wrong way).
Once again your ekectrinic skills are almost but not quite surpast by your mechanical skills When I start something electronic or mechanical I usually end up junking the whole thing my skills at fixing have deteriated with age yours seem to have goten better Great video
A very knowledgeable and clever repair, congratulations. I just wonder why anyone would pay to repair such an obsolete device. Any tape collections should have long ago been captured and digitized while the tape is still in good shape.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I would ban plastics in certain application if I would ever get in charge as a politician. Made out of CNC'd stainless steel, this thing would still work after five direct hits by a bomber... And it isn't even much more expensive.
Nice compact video 12 volts by the way what is your name am I aloud to ask you seem to do great work on all your electronic stuff top to you on such good presentation 😊😊😊😊😊
That is an unusual vcr, hopefully the deck is shared with some other brands. I wonder what happened to the chunk of plastic, vanished into the twilight zone. Hope the new car is performing even better than the chevy volt original :-)
Someone else has been into this before me as the screws were all loose and the drum was unplugged. Yes the new volt is better than the old in terms of power and better range. The old one handles better as it is heavier, feels much better planted in high speed cornering. Wife is much enjoying the old one. She had never driven it before, and now likes it. The old vehicle was an Escape and that thing was all over the road at speeds over 60MPH.
@@vhsdvdmanaus no 3d printer, no cad software and no cad file for part. Nope I can't make one. You're welcome to make me one though. Now if I had the file, and a printer I am sure I could but I am not about to design a part and print out 50 prototypes until I get one that actually works.
@@12voltvids Yes, really. Have to draw the part in CAD. Here in Manaus, some 3D CAD designers work very well, since they have the original part in hands.
@@12voltvids Maybe that part is JVC CONTROL PLATE Code PQ11658-1-15. The catalog is shared at drive.google.com/open?id=156uGCu_h4sGWNe1pGq9DaZHkjNBzO3X1 Page 49
You make these repaires seem so simple, guess that is down to your years of experience.
Thanks for sharing your skills.

This is definitely a lost art... Only those who have done this over and over again are able to get all the details of it
Neat teardown and diagnosis. 👍

I learned many things with these videos. Thank you.

I like very much to repair this vcr thanks a lot....
I’ve been waiting on a VCR Video.
Never seen a deck on end before , stacking problems if I had one , It would have to go on the floor like a tower
my god it only took mins and you had it apart nice unit to service ANDY UK

When you have done the job for 30+ years you tend to get good at it.
i don't know if you have 3d printer can you make the other plastic part from the broken one
No 3d ptintet
Good teaching
I stop using vcr 30 years ago, its all digital now aday :-) as always thumps upp.
no you didnt.. it wasnt digital 30 years ago.. vcrs where all the thing 30 years ago.. i still have many vcrs..

Ever have screws left over after reassembly?
No never have any left over.
I'm curious what is that section that's marked "SECAM" on the bottom PCB. Is this a multi system machine?
This was not a multi system, but the board had layout for additional components for secam model i would think.
@@12voltvids Are you married, do you have kids, i believe you have 1 son and his name is Gerald or Chris, haha
@@speedyboishan87
Yes as a matter of fact I am. Over 30 years now and both my kids are grown, in their 20s.
Now if you can just find the part.
That will be the challenge.
@@12voltvids You can make a 3d printed part.
