Would like to tape from tv.

Hi, it prints ok for a short while 2-3 pages then no black print the vent hole of the cartridge is plugged. You may have filled cartridge and forgot to take tape off the vent hole. Hope this helps this drove me crazy for a long time.

It is stupid as it serves no purpose at all-----I have removed a few----and several people I know have used a carefully cut piece of black tape to cover it up.

The radio checks to make sure the drive capstan is turning - if not, gives the E10 error. Either the drive belt in the radio is slipping or the drive wheel in the adapter is sticking. If it does it with a real cassette, then it's probably the drive belt. If not, you can try to figure out why the wheel in the adapter is not turning freely.

The Video portion of the set requires a belt and possibly a drive pulley.
When the tape is inserted, the deck moves it forward then back and if it can't because it has lost its drive due to a belt broken stops dead. Hence "Emmegency mode".

Remove power to the set - unplug the wall outlet. Remove the screws that attach the back cover. Remove the cover. Remove the cables that connect to the VHS drive to the TV main board. Remove the mounting screws that attaches the VHS drive to the set. Remove the VHS drive. Manually turn the take-up gear which is near a motor to allow the tape to mechanically eject the tape - do not force.

its sounds like you have the real FUNK (the good stuff) music...

John, if you still have the casing for these little cassettes I will tell you how to roll these tapes back onto the hub. you will need some crazy glue and a tiny phillip screw driver...its operation time, unscrew the 1st tape that is off the hub..when you open it make sure that tiny metal w/cotton pad is intack now the tape is already off the hub right (take the hub and push side ways that small piece on wheel like...now straighten out the tape on the other side of you...put 1/4 or 1/8 of in onto the hub ..do not try to snap the tiny piece back in, slide it in sideway on top tape..once this done ...no tape is sticking out right...place the tape through its slots (so it can run smooth) we about to put it back together make sure the metal w/ cotton pad is still in its place.... screw it back together (crazy glue is only for the tapes casing that dont have screws or that cracked)....now continue the process for the rest,,,,yes I have done the same process for micro / regular cassettes/ VHS and the those 8's. like me I still have my tapes too but a suggestion its a little time consuming but you should either put these tapes on portable hard drive (500 gig) or burn it to CD...

hope this helpful

Bring it back to the dealer. That happened to mine and they replaced it. Also had problems with the drivers seat. It would not go back & forth. Dealer fixed.

The menu button on the TV itself is bad and must be replaced ( or removed ). Alternatively the whole front button assembly can be disconnected. Just follow the wire back to the main chassis and unplug it.

TURN IT OFF AT THE WALL

It's time to say your good byes.
