Steven, It may take you some time, but why don't you go to this site, and search for a picture that looks like your unit. A model number would be lots help. http://www.diyvcrparts.com/cgibin/web_store/web_store.cgi If shingin a light in the sensors does not shut it off, you have a weak/dead LED or dirty prism.
