Hello
Have a funai vcr model sv2000 wv20v6 dvd/vcr model.
The dvd section work alright,But the vcr section not working right .
Here the problem when push to play the the vcr play for 10 to 15 second and the vcr shut down.
Each time try to play vcr the vcr only run for 15 second or less, than turn off.
i test the sensor light look alright.
So what could be wrong.
Thank for the help.

check and make sure the takeup spool is turning while the tape is moving, and if you took the mech off the board, make sure the pin on the mode switch is properly aligned with the hole in the mode switching wheel on the bottom of the mech. a lot of times the pin gets broken off the mode switch, so this can cause problems.

also, some takeup spools use a belt to a wheel with some kind of sensor. if the belt is loose or missing, the vcr stops to avoid eating tapes. so if the takeup spool is actually moving, check for a belt or some type of friction wheel connecting to a wheel with a hall sensor or opto sensor. if the capstan and pinch roller aren't moving, check the long belt under the mech.

most vcr mechs made from the late 90's onward are extremely similar with a few variations.
