Panasonic VCR model NV-HD100B shuts down

[Rubbishrat]

Hello, All!

My Panasonic VCR model NV-HD100B shuts down when asked to play or re-wind a
tape. If I switch on again I hear a noise like a motor is being overloaded
and then it shuts down again. If I remove the tape manually It fires up OK,
might even play a tape but before long it makes that noise again and shuts
down. I don't see anything obviously wrong, is there a stock fault with
these models?What should I be looking for ?
With best regards, Rubbishrat. E-mail: [email protected]

Probly the mode switch or worn gear maybe in the idler assembly, probly not
worth fixing, if you don`t know how to fix it yourself, probly more to fix
it than to buy a new one.

Get a hair drier warm up the power supply if it runs ok when hot change the
electrolytic capacitors in the PSU.
