20 Most Recent Mitsubishi HS-U540 VHS VCR Questions & Answers

Head amplifier circuit/module could be the problem in your case. You could also check the power supply to see if any electrolytic caps are out of tolerance or have changed value and replace them if necessary. ~ Here are a couple of examples of similar VCR issues I've had; some years ago, I had a Panasonic NV-F70A, with snowy video playback, and, after a lot of investigation and exhaustive testing it turned out to be the video head amplifier module that was the problem (not the heads themselves which were new) - replacing the plug-in aluminium-cased module fixed it and restored the video picture as well as the stereo audio output and flying head erase. Power supply was OK and the whole VCR good to go. ~ With another Panasonic (NV-J11A), it was several out of tolerance electrolytic capacitors in the power supply (another metal-cased plug-in module) that caused the snow on screen, erratic tape counter, and slightly wobbly audio. Head amp was OK in this one. I replaced every electrolytic in the PSU - and after plugging the module back in and turning the VCR on, the playback picture and tape counter were soon restored to normal - after some soak-testing, the machine went home. You may not need to do anything to or with your machine's power supply at all but it doesn't hurt to check anyway so that you can rule it out as a possible problem source.

Here is a link to the manual you've requested: Mitsubishi HS U430 User Manual best of luck!

Screw the coaxial cable to the television...then screw in the other end into the antenna in on the vcr....after plug in the audio video plugs according to the colors given (yellow goes to yellow, white or red goes into the white)...then usually it has a switch what channel you wanna use it for....then enjoy!...

This is a pretty old unit---try to Google the model number with "manual"

The RED is Right Speaker the WHITE is Left Speaker and the YELLOW is for Video. They connect with RCA Cables to the same color coded inputs on yout TV.You may find it easlier to just use a CoAxial Cable; Use a CoAxial for the CABLE IN to the Cable Box then 1 CoAxial from the Cable Box OUT to the VCR IN then use 1 OUT from VCR to TV IN. That is much easlier then using RCA Cables.

The loading basket is bad, usually caused by a bad gear linkage, repairs will be pricey.

If you have a remote, there should be a button labeled "SP/EP" or "RECORDING SPEED." Otherwise, I might try looking in the VCR's main menu.

Do you have a menu or setup button on the VCR's remote? If you press that, you'll have to look in the menu until you find the language selection. Oh, wait. If it's in Spanish, you might need a Spanish to English dictionary, too.
Well, good luck, and just ask if you need more help. I hope I gave you enough info, but the menus vary with every VCR, so I can't be too much more specific.

Usually there's an input select button on a VCR's remote. You just press that, and it should work. It usually does.

Hit menu on the remote or on the tv and then view the choices. there will be one for language, change it to your preference. ole'

Many of the late VCRs have very limited funtion from the VCR buttons. Power, eject, play, perhaps channel selection, that is about it for most. I assume you don't have the manual? Looked on Mitsubishi website, didn't list a manual for your specific model, perhaps another model would be close enough. http://www.mitsubishi-tv.com/j/i/18344/OwnersGuides.html?tid=5&f1=2005&s=3 Replacement remotes here: http://www.vcrremotecontrols.com/Mfrs/Mitsubishi/MitsubishiVcr.htm

The lamp is not enabled possibly due to the colour wheel motor not turning. Any broken glass jamming it? Or the lamp ballast has failed due to an old/worn lamp.

Most likely you need to replace the projection bulb. You can find them online. DLP sets are famous - or infamous - for burning out the bulbs/lamps.

Your Mitsubishi VCR HS-U580 looks to have a problem with the information rollers and drum. Here are some things to check: Look for something blocking the VCR or cassette compartment that would possibly be stopping the guide rollers. Check the belt that drives the VCR mechanism. If it is loose or broken, you may also need to substitute it. Clean the video heads using a head-cleaning cassette to make certain they're not dirty. See if the drum motor is working. If it is not spinning, there may be an issue with the motor. If the trouble persists, it's an exact idea to get assistance from a professional technician or contact Mitsubishi's purchaser support for advice. Be cautious when dealing with electronic devices, and if you are not certain what to do, it's great to get assistance from an expert.
