Panasonic 13" TV VCR Combo Unit White PV-C1332W put tape in and plays sound but just static shows on all movies?

Some VHS have a tracking button that allows the user to tune to the best signal. Usually that tracking function is used as follows.
While movie is playing on the VHS unit and signal gets fuzzy, press the channel key repeatedly (for example >> to increase the channel number). f after awhile pressing the same channel change button does not find a better picture, you should press the other channel change button (to decrease the channel number <<) to see if the picture improves.

If that does not work, IT DOES NOT MEAN that you tv/vcr combo unit is defective. It could just be the movie. The tape is magnetic and it might have been accidentally demagnetized.

If picture is better with another movie/tape, your unit is definitely OK.

My son did the same thing to his tv and to get it off you simply press and hold down the play/repeat button for approximately 5 seconds and then it will disappear from the screen.

Best to take the unit to a shop. The unit can be taken apart and the tape removed manually.

We had that same problem. Try a VHS head cleaner. Worked for us.

check the tip in my profile

Does it play back professionally prerecorded tapes okay? Does that VCR have a HiFi stereo option? What is the brand name and model number of the unit?
