Default RCA VMT-390 VCR

Its the belts that are bad, they have stretched out of shape. You should
replace all of them. I think there were at least 6 of them.

I have been away from repair too long. Wife's VCR, when set up to
record, records about 1 second and then stops. I cleaned the tape
path and pinch roller (it was squeeling), but it is still not working
and if I remember correctly there is something else that goes wrong to
cause this. Any suggestions?
