Hi all! Trying something new - fix vcr
- was no power (fixed), bad rubber parts - fixed, mechanics - lubricated/cleaned.
It was recaped by me - all caps (most of) was with really hi esr (some were dried up).
Now I've stumbled on - why 2nd head isn't showing and not reacting to adjust of tape path (tried to re-align head drum assembly as well - but it on old place / and pick-up / take-out rolls) - maybe its dead (but I can't see cracks / damage under microscope)?
Or head amp won't switch to it?
Can I hook it up to video head directly - or output level will be to low for rigol dho804?
On scope - fm signal synced to hall sensor in drum, head amp is usually should switch between heads, but in may can - one part is missing...
Thanks!
