VCR ONLY USE 5 OR 6 TIMES SINCE PURCHASE 20 YEARS AGO-AND ONLY FOR CASSETTE PLAYBACK (NO RECORDING). NOW NO PICTURE NOR AUDIO EVEN WHEN CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO TV (NO ANTENA NOR CABLE). TRIED HOOKUP ON 2 DIFFERENT TV'S WITH NO DIFFERENCE..ONLY 'BLUE'SCREEN AND ABILITY TO SHOW 'DATA SCREEN'. INSIDE OF UNIT LOOKS SUPER CLEAN AND MECHANISMS WORK OK. I NOTICE THAT UNIT DOES NOT APPEAR TO RECOGNIZE HOW MUCH RECORDING TIME REMAINING NOR ORIGINAL MINUTES AND COUNTER DOES NOT COUNT DOWN MINUTES PLAYED...'AUTOTRACKING'INDICATOR FLICKERS ALL THE TIME RATHER THAN STAY ON STEADY ?.....ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED...jim

SOURCE: PV-GS9 mini dv playback problem
I covered several threads that recommended buying a Mini DV cleaner and
running it up to 4 times. They also suggested to change to change your
video tape as it may have been the cause of the original problem.
These
solutions may have worked for many but not me. My camera was becoming
progressively worse. It went to blue bars and no sound to no picture at
all...just blue. After using a cleaner 4 times I became frustrated to
the point I was going to buy a new camera.
However, with the
camera still playing, I did the typical guy thing and rolled up my fist
and gave it a good hit along side of it. Remarkably it went back to
just the blue bars. I hit it again and it went back to a perfect
picture. I'm not saying this will work for you and hitting it too hard
could make things worse but I was at a point where I didn't care any
more and took a chance that paid off.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

If it won't PLAY VHS tapes it must have a serious mechanical problem (if it even loads) or its heads are glommed up, so it obviously won't record them either. When's the last time you ran a cleaning tape through it?
Solve the load or playback problem and it will probably record.
Time and poor storage conditions are the mortal enemies of tapes. Store the in a 'played
