Hi,
I have a sturdy Zenith VR-3300 that developed a problem recently and before
giving up on it for the high cost of a video shop repair I thought I should
ask if it might be easily fixed at home. The problem is that when inserting
a cassette the tape loads, threads itself, starts to play but then stops
almost immediately and retreats back into the cassette shell. I hate to
loose the service of this nice unit and have had the cover off once or twice
to clean things with q-tips and rubbing alcohol but this time around I
cannot see anything obvious that would indicate a problem.
I need a vcr to view the tapes at the university I am attending. I realize
new units are fairly cheap but I'd rather stick with this well designed vcr
that came out when they were considered high end audio/video equipment.
Thanks for the help and advice, Steve.
