I have this Panasonic VCR, model PV-S4480-K which has no video during play. Sound is ok. The picture is only grey with faint out of sync lines running through the screen. Video output or RF out gives same result. I replaced some high ESR caps in the power supply. Researched tips but only found one for a model # PV-S-4764 which said to replace open IC protector PR8301 on SVHS board. I looked for that IC protector on the SVHS board in this unit and I can't see it. Must be a different board. Thanks for any help. -- Gary McCartney McCartney Electronics Guelph Ontario Canada Est. 1984 email: gary (at) number63.ca ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Password: http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?".
