Origional Factory Training of Panasonic Sylvania VCR chasis alignment G-Chasis / G Mechanism 

I made a big mistake and installed the cassette housing in the ejected position while the gears were in the half-loaded position. RIP NV-FS200 S-VHS. :(

Where do i get split lock washer?

👍👍👍

You’re welcome. I know it’s a horribly difficult thing to figure out.

@@iRepairElectronics I spent 12 hours - 2 late nights + a long morning - comparing three videos and going back & forth to ensure I didn't muck anything up, and double-checking, as the AG-W1 is a solid player as well. I had 2 of the model a good 20 years ago, and the only issue was heat; the lack of any fan ensured long hours of operation would heat up circuits and fry something (which did occur). But if you add a Sears fan in the back, the issue is gone. Your posted video has the right pacing for a novice, and one also develops deserved admiration for Panasonic's engineers in trying to simplify a complicated assembly for repairs.

Hard to find anyone to fix electronics these days.

Darn tootin it is. and yet when i tried to get a decent amount of money to make one of these working properly, customers always complained it was too much. and then went and bought a new VCR.

First off , thats not a model number. Second i cant see your machine from here.

@@iRepairElectronics thanks for replying. its a VTR model

If the tape is moving, you might have dirty heads. I will put up a video soon on how to clean video heads without breaking them

Hi. I recently overhauled an NV-7500 and it's now fully working so I might be able to help. Does the pinch roller solenoid kick in after the mechanism finishes its loading process?

No

How is this complicated? It's close to any standard VCR mechanism - they're all complicated (and good designs). The only ones I'd call "not complicated" are the plastic ones from the early 00's to the end of VCR production, and those were cheap, nasty and broke easily. This is what a VCR mech should be like, nice big chunk of metal with low quantities of plastic, shame they stopped doing it instead choosing to lower costs with plastic.

The G mechanism is just over-engineered. Compare this to the previous D mechanism and you'll see...

You can see why the K-mechanism was designed to be much easier to align. And it is. I had to do one recently because the large sliding assembly had split, I just followed the service manual and put it together no problem, having never re-timed one before. The G-mechanism is a lot harder to work on. It's also very slow and clunky in operation compared to the K.
