If I had a time machine I'd go back to the 80s and make crazy money after learning this 😆 I have 8 old VCRs to practice on right now! Thx for the video 👍👍👍

I have a singer 4423 and turning that silver thing didn’t work for me, so by replacing what you replaced will that fixed it? Or do I have to look at the other parts to see if something is wrong? I don’t really know this type of stuff

This was a life saver ☺️ thank you very much!

Thanks on the way to get a new radiator for mine too

What happened. Did replacing the radiator fix the overheating issue?

Yo, wheres your shroud at? Air cant blow (from the fan) threw your radiator very well like that. Pull the bottom hose or open the petcock and see what comes out. Im guessing plugged up radiator and a bad water pump?

👍👍👍

i Repair Electronics ------------------------------------------- I have three VCRs Mchine does not work 1] I need to learn how to clean the Machines 2] The ones that works and the ones that doesn't work Use the parts to make a tape cleaniinng Machine 3] need to now how to use the motor. how to power the motor -speed control forward and rewinding stop - and the tape counter i Repair Electronics can you help me Alan

I have a an original number 723 made in the USA Sterritt digital caliper the new ones are crap!

Is the lower hose hotter than the upper hose?

Автор подскажите пожалуйста, эти аппараты на 8 головок ????

Hello sir and thank you for your video. I have a Singer Heavy Duty 4432 that comes with an Electronic foot paddle similar to the one you presented. I played with the potentiometer dial to set stitching slower however the speed lever starts abruptly with an already fast speed (even when using the slowest speed dial). As you already presented the problem in the video, the solution is to replace the diac. The diac the paddle comes with is a DB3. Which one did you replace it with in order for the speed to drastically slow down from the factory's slowest speed?

Not carbon it's ferrite.👍

Thank you for the good video, I have one about 20 years, that’s probably one of the best I ever see ,

Interesting video, vcr mechanic is very delicate

I'm glad to see you are wise tobthe steel gears, too. I have a set i am putting in my F150, and i was curious if i was gonna have to hint to folks I had a blower under the hood. The amount of extra whine those gears made on your rig is perfectly acceptable. Thanks!

Hi Is it same as Panasonic VCR NV-SD 350

Anyone have a suggestion as to the best type of lube to use on the pinch roller assembly brass bushing where it mounts onto the metal pole? I know it is only a very tiny amount & only after it is properly cleaned, but what type of lubricant is recommended for this bushing? Would a half drop (or less) of Super Lube 51004 Synthetic Oil with PTFE be fine?

I happened to come across this video purely by accident. It blew me away as this instrument was one of my designs during my tenure at Sencore, along with the follow-on improvements to the Z-Meter. That high voltage power supply later moved to an extremely high dynamic range flyback converter that became the standard in their instruments for years. One thing that would soon disappear in Sencore's line though, and that was circuit boards taped by hand--they moved to a CAD system in 1986 or so.

thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise. You are helping me make people happy saving their home tapes!!

As a mechanic... This was painful to watch.... My guy .. all you had to do was soak it in PB Blaster and heat the piss out of it... Woulda popped right off 😊

Well i learned something today!...the drum isnt the head!

although WD40 is ubiquitous, it is not a penetrating fluid. The job may have gone easier with a true penetrating fluid left to work overnight.

Great video , i have the same vcr , i cleaned everything using your video as regernce... but my issue persit... seesm like auto-tracking noise but moving from top to center of screen every 7 seconds... this long time seems related to tape complete circle ... nothing else is doing 7 seconds periods... do you hany help / ideas about what can be ? Very thank you !

Hi, not sure if you can reply to me, is this machine high durability? I mean, does it require belts for driving? What will you grade this vhs deck? Does it a real high end model? So far I have a well maintenance JVC HR S5000, and I am ready to collect nv-w1 deck, just want to know more about this deck and whether it worths or not. Thanks.

wish you would have broke off the tanks to look inside the old radiator, look with a flash lite trough the core tubes for blockage. And good way to test flow on a radiator is to lay it down with cap installed and fill with water, then stand i up see how long it takes to drain.

word of warning,if you use the machine slowly the motors overheat as the cooling fan is on the motor shaft,i fitted mine with an external pc fan with a 12v smps psu fitted into the underside of the machine,was this a design cockup?

Nice one Joe! Cheers.

Hello, I have a D-VHS JVC 30000 have been using for years now, but I noticed some tapes were not playing well, the picture was fragmented so took it upstairs to clean the heads, I had done this before years ago with a piece of paper and rubbing alcohol and it worked last time I did that so felt confident doing it again. Earlier today I used a cloth similar to what you`re showing. Isopropyl microfiber lense cleaning cloth for Eye Glasses. I could not find a bottle of rubbing alcohol. First time I cleaned, I did it gently and more towards the top on the drum. I had thought the Drum WAS the head. I put it all back together and went to play a tape that previously would not play and it was playing perfectly, so I was all happy. I then popped in another tape that also would not play previous and nope, it was all fragmented and breaking up. So I put the 1st tape back in and sigh, it was the same. So I went back to cleaning again but watched where the tape was actually making contact and realized it was more towards the bottom ( Where the heads actually are) only I could feel a bit of friction and noticed part of the cloth was tearing away which I figured was not good since this is why they tell people not to use cotton swabs/Qtips. So I hooked it all back up and the 1st tape still would not play so I figured I must have damaged the heads. I then took it to garage and blew out with compressed air in case any small fibres had worked its way into somewhere they shoudnt be and still not working. So I was ready to give up and look for another unit, but fast forwarded to about half way through the tape and then put it on fast play where its like 3-5x the speed but you can follow the picture along and the picture was clear. I assumed because the heads are moving faster this is why you can see the picture okay, but also assumed once I pushed play that it would not work again, but it actually was working again. I rewound the tape all the way and started from the beginning and its working perfectly? Did I get lucky here? Any idea how it corrected itself? Is it a case of maybe the heads have been used so much already they might be wearing out? These DVHS machines are a bit pricey these days so just buying another is not something could easily consider right now.

Two questions.... Does this advice apply to 8mm players as well? Also, can we use WD electronic contact cleaners?

Gracias muy bueno su video .Este tutorial me sirve para panasonic vhs NV-G39PX

Ya every cap I tested this way ended up like the orange drop u tried and couldn't get a definitive result. I'm still on the fence here with this polarity on the caps . If I can't see it on my scope it's not going to matter in the circuit. I have tried it with a bunch of different values and different brands . I'm ki da convinced the newer ones are made differently where it's not going to matter. How else would u explain the one u couldn't tell ?

A while ago I was having overheating issues with my 1996 Lincoln Town Car. I flushed the cooling system, changed the thermostat, and checked the fan clutch, it still was overheating but the one thing I overlooked was the water pump. I pulled the water pump and discovered the impellers had disintegrated.

Where would I find the schematic?

Ottimo

will Lens Cleaning Pads that are pre moistened with Isopropyl alcohol be ok.?

Great video don't forget that mode switch everything is proven people don't keep that clean out every now and then it causes problem's in time

You should read the manual before posting a video like this, because you don't know anything about it 🤦

How did you get the puller behind the cam gear hub? I have absolutely no space and I have the exact same puller by coincidence. I am currently cutting the cam gear hub off a little bit at a time because I have not had any luck pulling it or heating it. I tried heating first FYI. Your cam gear hub looked to have space behind it and I just find that highly curious compared to mine. Definitely looks exactly like the same cam gear hub I have.

Que nostálgia de los cientos de vcr que repare años atras y sobre todo esta mecánica G, pasarón muchos por mis manos en España

I've been trying to find a real tutorial on how to use my 333A. I'm just a hobbyist, but a pretty serious hobbyist. Anyways, this is by far the most accurate and helpful video I have been able to find. Thank you!

The car air conditioner is usually colder while driving.

thanks for the video, do you indicate any site to acquire knowledge in maintenance for teradek? we don't have national content about it, it's hard to find foreign content from here. I'm from Brazil.

Joe, thx for sharing. You got lucky the sine converter could've been broken and you wouldn't have gotten near as low a distortion. Hey, I'll take a lucky break anytime I can. Those HP 334s are not fast to operate but they're durable and quite accurate. The autotune feature is a great time saver too. The earlier ones didn't have that feature which slowed measurements down a lot. You got relatively quick measurement time even it manual mode. Good job. Again, thx for sharing.

got the number here must have missed it before, thanks again.

Have a 4411HD new and it is way too fast for current skill level's. I am doing seatcovers with short tight radii and anyway, the control was adjusted to a higher break down for the diac, (thanks for the video), but if my foot is clumsy by 1/8 inch, I end up with garbage coming out. Was wondering if you have the rating for the diac, is it a 125V ? or what did you order with your successful mod. thnx

Wow... !!! My best friend, You Great Good... !!! I wish you every day of your development. Best Relaxing +thumb up3!

I wish more people would fix VHS players these days. I can't find anyone in my area. Learning myself now.

There must be a way to physically block that slider, maybe a piece of plastic in the slot with hot glue woud do the job. Simply establishing a much needed speed limit.
