Is it possible that you can use a multimeter instead of your meters that lots of people don’t have??? Thank you
My wishes were heard. After watching the first video, a sequel is very welcome 🙂.
I'm glad you fixed it 🙂 You were a bit more unlucky than I was. Your symptoms were slightly different. In my case, the display would function for a few seconds, then start shimmering and go out. Just changing the caps behind the level meters solved my problem, but in your case it popped the fuse as well. A nice satisfying repair. Excellent machines given they were the entry level Betacam recorders.
Smashing, nice cheap repair 😀
It's funny that the surface mounted caps had R1P printed on them. Looks like they all died and R1P 😉
You know what's after FU1? FU too!
You may have a problem with that board in the future. It looks like the trace between FU1 and C4 had some capacitor electrolyte seep under the masking and damage it, where it's all black. Looks to be going all the way to C5, probably where the electrolyte originated from. Maybe a bit more between R7 and ZD1.
I prefer the twist and break method of removing those bad SMD caps, they usually just fall off, but there's something therapeutic about seeing them being cut to death and ripped off in pieces after all of the carnage they cause. I've replaced thousands of those stupid things, the damage they cause is crazy.
We used to have a Sanyo Betamax VCR. So Sony must have licensed Beta to at least one other company.
In new zealand have 26 degrees celsous
What was wrong with taking the tape out if you needed to clean the heads? Why did they fire you?
Great! Watching now.
