Default JVC HR-J235EK end sensors

In rewind, fast forward or playback, when tape gets to the end,
the tape end sensors do not stop tape and vcr shuts down.
Have replaced both end sensors and centre LED but fault still there.
The voltages seem to be ok.
Could the main micro be faulty?

Unlikely to be the micro. More likely the mode switch. If the sensors
didn't work then the tape couldn't load or play. I've never seen a faulty
micro, but more the 'garbage in garbage out' idea, so look for another input
that is corrupt- hence mode switch problems. if problem still persists, then
post back more fault symptoms to help narrow it down.

Thanks for suggestion.
We now have a mode switch on order
to see if this cures the problem.
