Hi, problem with the above vcr which is taking up a bit of my time here! VCR had a tape stuck inside - the owner took the tape out. Nothing bent etc Display is fine. Loads cassette, drum is spinning - when it comes to play, the drum stops and no play at all. Looked at mode switch and mechanical side - seems ok?! - Belts ok etc Eject works ok but fast forward and rewind are not functioning. Sure this was a mode switch fault but I seem to have aligned everything ok? No luck!! Unless I am missing something obvious here then I am stumped. Problem is it is only a year/15 months old!! Any help will be gratefully received here!
