If the VHS tape is stuck inside, and when you push the eject button, it wont come out. Then you need to unplug the VHS player, take it apart so that you can access the inside. See how the tape is stuck inside and start to take it out the best you can. Once you get it out you may have to throw away the tape if it is messed up badly, if not wind it back up. Put the VHS player back together once you get the tape out. Then try to play another VHS tape and see if it works again. If not, it may be a bad VHS player or it may be the tapes. Hope this helps. I have had to take mine apart to take a tape out, so that's how I know
This will be some form of physical damage to the carriage mechanism, that holds the tape. Sometimes it's a simple thing like the flap getting stuck. But often it's a broken piece of plastic.
I had this problem when copying an old family vhs tape. I had to unscrew
the top of the magnavox to access the vhs tape. Then, I gently removed
the tape and replaced the cover. After winding the tape back, I put it
in the player and immediately pushed fast forward for about 3 seconds
before hitting play followed by d.dubbing. I was able to make a copy of
the tape and did not damage my original.
If you remove the screws and very carefully lift off the bottom half of the case you should fine the contents should stay in place. Then its just a case of removing the twist and replacing the case half.
This can be fixed by removing the screws off the back of the TV and removing the back panel. Be sure to have unit unplugged and to touch nothing else in the system other then what I mention. Doing so could send you on a flight across the room. After you have the back off you will find something called the carriage this is the thing the tape will be sitting inside. To the left or right of the carriage you will find a really small hotdog shaped gear turning one way will force the tape further in turning it the other way to force the tape back out. be sure to assist any loose tape out so it does not get stuck on anything and jam/break something
