I just finished a JVC VCR model HR-J620U which wouldn't accept or eject
a cassette.
The fix was the "carriage idler" as I call it. It had a nylon post on
the one end of it which held a spring. This post was broken off, leaving
the spring unattached and therefore the idler was not making contact
with the drive train when the eject signal was being called.
I repleced the nylon post with a bolt. I had to find one that was fairly
flat on the head and then I had to grind the head down until it was very
thin, just enough to hold, because this idler rubs on the metal base
below it.
I have posted pics on my web page for a limited time, which you can
download and save if you want.
