SLV 555 Sony VCR!!

[Rono]

Have two of the same model. Mode switch redone, timing reset,
worn gears replaced. Plug it in, unit "resets" timing by making a
short "attemt to reset timing". Bad load caddy sensor? Rono.

Could be the cassette tray timing but more likely the mode switch is
not orientated correctly or the gears are not aligned properly.
Since you have two machines you can use the one that you have not
"fixed" as a guide to line things up.

Make certain that the center IR LED is emitting and that the BOT and
EOT sensors are working. If the cassette tray is not fully "up" then
the mechanism will try to load the cassette. Use the 2nd machine that
you have not yet "fixed" as a guide.
