Fault | Solution |
---|---|
Cassette Chassis | The Sanyo VPR-5800 has the same mechanism as the Sanyo VTC-5300P. Mechanical parts are interchangeable. Please pay attention to the eject mechanism, it is easy to break, but is not difficult to repair. |
Stops in PLAY/FF/REW after 2 seconds | Tape counter not running. Check the two belts connecting the take-up reel to the tape counter. |
No tape loading (You can hear the motor running) | The reel motor drives the loading ring using an idler pulley and a belt. Usually these parts deteriorate with time and need replacing. |
Loss of drum servo lock in record when dark images appear | Replace the 100uF 10V electrolytic capacitor on the servo board SY-1/SV-1. If that cap is bad, it will also affect playback drum servo lock until the machine warms up. |
