IMPORTANT - BEFORE WORKING ON ANY ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, ENSURE IF HAS BEEN UNPLUGGED
The video covers some very basic troubleshooting that you can carry out on any VCR.
There has been a bit of a resurgence for magnetic media, of late. This means a spike in the sales of secondhand VHS and Betamax decks. The problem that can sometimes come about, is that the VCR is returned to the seller, as 'broken'. This can be a simple case of a bad tape being used in the machine.
Before sending the deck back, you can try carefully cleaning the tape path, so, the video heads and audio heads.
