Re: Cleaning video heads etc
Not just the heads but the entire drum and tape path often need cleaning. I service VCRs after many tapes have run through them. Cleaning the full tape path can take some time. Often the pinch roller needs to be removed for a decent clean. Sometimes a capstan motor needs to be removed to properly access and clean its capstan shaft. Some buy a fancy external time base corrector when the problem may often be a dirty tape path.
