Hello. I recently bought an akai vs-1eg. The machine works, but when you insert the cassette and press play, it tries to read the tape, but it cannot read it and the machine cuts off the power. I wonder what is the problem with this? I can't find the user manual either.
Hello. The VCR is a complicated structure. It's hard to say what the problem might be. Watch the videos to see if you can find something that will help you fix it. For example, the tape feed gears are not in the right position. Or the strip indicator light is not working. Worn idler. And I could go on and on.
If the tape unloads after reset and it is still possible to eject I think it pretty much is the loading belt. The VS-1 is mechanically the same as the VS-2, only the cassette lift differs. The VS-1 is a front loader. The VS-5 also looks the same inside, it has an additional warning buzzer if something does not work and if loading the tape around the drum does not work it gives a 'breakdown' message in the display.
@@retrodeck1956 I apreciate your fast answer. Thanks very much. No one had even answered before. I couldn't find this manual a long period of time. Hi from Uzbekistan.
@@dmltriykosilov2279 Glad I could help, these retro Akai VCRs are rare and I love them. Unfortunately, I only have one of VS 12 and it is also waiting for repair. Good luck with the repair. Greetings from Hungary.

Too bad the annoying and distracting background music started suddenly, nice video for the remainder.
