I usually get lucky with just replacing belts on these, but you have to use the exact same size belt... support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx FAX 717-564-4952 Jeff Dougherty Intrepid Video & Electronics Be careful of your thoughts. 501 Luther Rd They may become your words Harrisburg, PA 17111 any moment. 717-909-8844 VCR tips, electronics info & general interest. www.intrepid-video.com www.tech-repair.net www.thetoolcaddy.com www.9-11-2001tragedy.com *********************************************************************** ----- Original Message ----- From: <gulftech@xxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 13, 2003 6:30 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Sony Beta VCR model SLHF2000, Blue Screen After 10-15 min Techs, I know almost nothing about Beta machines. This is sent for my VCR tech. Set will play fine for several minutes, then blue screen. Has tried cleaning and cold spray. Changed the capstan motor. Shut the set down, wait awile, and the process will repeat. Any help appreciated.
