Sony EV-5500 8MM VCR RF Tuner Fault
The tuner selects ok, but the RF video out on all channels 'phases'
from clear picture to garbled and back to clear every 1 sec. Audio is fine. The rest of the VCR operates perfectly. I got it off Ebay a while ago, but don't recall if I initially hooked it up to cable or not, so not exactly sure if it came this way. I can probably fix it if this is a repairable fault, but unlikely to find a replacement tuner. Thoughts on where to start? Thanks JR -- |

They won't sell you a replacement tuner, they want to sell you more of their **** that breaks. Thoughts on where to start? Take it to the nearest trash bin and leaving it there. |
