JVC VCR HR-S7600U Only on for 3 seconds
My wife had finished watching a tape and was putting in a new one, when the
VCR shut itself off. Now, whether I push the power button on the unit or on the remote, the VCR will turn on, then turn off after about 3 seconds. The video will output whatever channel the VCR is tuned to during that time. If I insert a tape, then the unit will turn on for about 14 seconds - long enough to load the tape and wrap the tape around the upper cylinder. Opening up the unit, the belts are a little loose (the unit is 4 years old), but all of the motors seem to work and spinning properly. During the tape load process, the tape is fowarded and reversed. I left it unplugged for 24 hours to no avail. I also tried holding the power button on the remote for 7seconds, which only caused the kid-lock to become engaged. When the unit is 'off' the clock is displayed as appropriate. After I reapplied AC power, the unit went into its 'Auto' mode to get the time and channels. This is about a 2 minute process. It did get the time from a local TV station, and it also retrieved the channel list. Any ideas? Thanks, Paul |

The power supply section may be failing. This has to be verified first.
