Hi, I'm looking for someone to help me with a VM-E530A. If you insert a tape, it loads fine, it ejects fine. The cylinder motor or the capstan motor does not start. The tape is in the cassette just sitting in the basket. TAPE flashes in the VF. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Your question is sort of vague. It is like saying that my car will not start, where is the trouble.
The capstan servo circuits, and or motor may be the fault. A common cause of failure are the caps in the capstan drive. It is best to use an ESR meter to check these. Some techs will replace all the caps.
It is also possible that a tape sensor, or some other device that commands the capstan operation may be at fault. It would be best to properly troubleshoot the unit. It is also possible that the voltage supply to the capstan servo section, or some other area is not proper, or that the uPC is not giving a proper logic command to make it work.
