I have a problem with a JVC V711B VCR (about 15 years old). I'm unable
to power the unit on. I've checked the fuses whch are all fine and I
have 240V reaching the power supply board (don't know the correct terms
for these things). There's no noise from the transformer and absolutly
nothing from the VCR itself. Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

Isn't that model a Toshiba VCR? If so, try C808 330UF25Volt.
I'm not familiar with that model, & research tells me it's a Toshiba. If
it IS a JVC, check for bad electrolytic capacitors in the power supply.

Er...yep. Sorry I was confused - it is a Toshiba. I've changed C808
with no results. Any other ideas?
